For My Mom

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM.

I miss you every single day, I wish you were here to see your grandchildren.

The other week I was walking through a store when a woman in her mid-40's rushed by me, I swore she was you. In a quick glance she looked like you but the real kicker was she wore your perfume - Obsession. I walked through the store until I found her again jsut so I could prove to myself that she wasn't you.

I had 19 wonderful years with you, my time with you was cut short but I am so very thankful for the time I had with you.

I named your granddaughter after you, well I gave her part of your name - the long version. She reminds me so much of you, from her looks to her little personality. I told hubby when I was pregnant with her that I wanted her to be like you - determined and independent and boy is she ever that way :o)

So today on what would have been your 48th birthday I love and miss you so very much. Happy Birthday in Heaven mom, I'm sure Nan and Pap, Uncle C, Uncle T and all our other loved ones that passed were there to celebrate with you.
