Happy Mother's Day to our Mothers

Mother's Day will be hard for all of us. I am feeling sad for all the motherless sons and daughters out there. Mothers Day for me is a memory of the beautiful woman who took me where I am today. All that I am, I am because of her. All that I have, I have because of her. She is in everything I do. The memories of her are part of my being, my soul, my heart. On this special day when we honor our dear mothers let us give thanks for the wonderful gift that God has bestowed on us, the loving and caring mothers that we called our own. Let us pray that we can carry on without them always knowing that they are with us. I know that they would want us to go on and be strong. I lost my beautiful mother on January 8, 2011 and this will be my first Mother's Day in 59 years as a motherless daughter. I miss you so much mom. I see you everywhere I go. We are one and someday we will have our tea and cookies together again. I hope your special day in heaven is beautiful and that you are celebrating with all the other dear mothers who have left their sons and daughters here on earth. I love you mom. Happy Mother's Day to you and to all of your heavenly sisters who were also called "Mom".

Thank you Diane for your beautiful words! It will be my first Mother's Day without my Mom. I hope to get through it in my own way!

It's going to be a hard Mothers Day for all of us without our Mom's. This is my second without mine. I got by last year by remembering the good things that we had enjoyed on Mothers Day when she was here with us. My mom loved to laugh and have fun so I remember all those times as well. Know that we're all feeling the same thing and we're here for anyone who needs to talk, or vent, or cry.

This is my first Mother's Day without my mom and it SUCKS. (Had to just be blunt.) She died 3 weeks ago today and it still feels like I'm walking through quicksand. This is just another one of those days where I want to crawl back in bed, hide under the covers and pretend it's tomorrow.

I know the feeling Lacy. It's been a year since I lost my mom and I still want to hide away for this day. It's just so sad not having our mothers. I just can't imagine what it would be like to loose a child. Everyone says that's even worse. Hopefully we'll never have to find out.

I so know how you're feeling. My mother passed away in January 2011, and the first two weeks I just felt like an empty shell. There was nothing, no smiles, no expressions, no thoughts, no world. Things have gotten a little better, but I still always feel like a piece of me is missing. I can't stop thinking of her and the final journey she took before her death. It will never stop haunting me and the pain of losing her will live on forever. Just keep on going like she would want you to, and hopefully as time goes by we can accept the fact that they are never coming back to us in this life and hope to see them again in the next.
