Missing You

Today marks 6 months since I lost my beautiful mother, my best friend. While I have made progress in accepting her death, there isn't a day that I don't long to be with her. There is an emptiness in my life and days where it's difficult to fathom she's no longer here on earth. I miss her love and friendship, our daily conversations, her humor and laughter, her spontaneity and willingness to do just about anything to have some fun, her listening ear with great advice, and her overall presence.

The holiday's will be difficult without her but I am at peace in knowing she isn't suffering. I feel her watching down on me and know she will continue to be with me until we meet in Heaven. Missing you.
