Happy Birthday Mommy

Today is my dear Mother's Birthday......she would have been 67 years old.

I can not believe it has been two an a half years since you left your earthly bounds......and how much it aches to not have your physical presence here.

I miss you Mommy.........and I love you, oh so, very very much!

Happy, Happy Birthday Mommy, I can't seem to stop crying today. We all miss you so dearly.






Me, Mommy and Kenny


A mother is the truest friend we have, when trials heavy and sudden, fall upon us; when adversity takes the place of prosperity; when friends who rejoice with us in our sunshine desert us; when trouble thickens around us, still will she cling to us, and endeavor by her kind precepts and counsels to dissipate the clouds of darkness, and cause peace to return to our hearts. ~Washington Irving

I am struck by Emma's resemblance to you, as young girl..remarkably like her mama..as it sounds like you resemble your mother in so many ways.
