Today has been one year since my beautiful mother left this earth and my heart is still aching.  The past year has been the worst year of my life.  There hasn't been one day that I haven't missed her and cried for her.  Mom, you were a kind and loving teacher and an inspiration to us all.  Everything I am, I am because of you.  You taught me everything I know and I am so greatful for your unconditional love.  Rest now, sweet mother, in the glorious arms of Jesus.  Know that we will meet again one day.  Until then, you are forever in my heart and our souls are always joined as one.  I love you Mom!
