Mom, It's Been Thirteen Years (4,762 Days)

Dear Mom,

Thirteen years ago, you found your angel wings. I say “found” because you always had them, I just don’t think you realized it.

To say I feel blessed to have had you in my life for 41 years is such an understatement. Your love, respect, grace and strength was unrepeatable.

Thank you for being the example by which I raise our kids. I have heard your voice in my head guiding me more times than I can remember.

Thank you for being the example by which I live my life. Keep moving. Keep loving. Keep laughing.

Thank you for being the voice in my head when I make decisions in my life. You were always calm, objective and wise.

One day, I will write your story. It will be an epic tale of a quiet woman who lived a life full of love and soul strengthening challenges. I’m still in awe of you.
