In honor of my Mother

I can not even begin to say how much I still miss my mother. She died March 12, 2010 and my heart still aches everyday for her voice, touch and or just knowing I could pick up the phone and call her. I am a grown woman in her 30's and self sufficient; this thanks to my mother. Who showed me by example to always be self sufficient and independent. She taught me how to cook, clean and seek out the knowledge to do things I might not know how to. I miss her voice and her knowledge and advice. As a teen I fought with her and challenged her I guess most teens do that. I expect one days my kids will do that to me. Through it all I still had this undying respect and admiration for my Mother. She taught me unconditional love because through anything I could always go to my mother and tell her anything. I am who I am because of her and what she has taught me she loved her five girls more than life itself and she lived and breathed for her girls. This is how I live for my kids now because she taught me this. She would rather buy us new clothes than buy herself anything and often times she went without. My mom did not care just as long as her girls were happy and content. The memories never end and she continues to live in my heart. I moved back to Florida from New Jersey because I missed my mother so much and less then 8 months after coming back I lost her. I thank God for the time I got to spend with her and the time my kids to to spend with her. This Mother's Day I will remember my mother with honor and love------ She will always be missed....always

Love you Mom

Your Always Faithful Daughter
