I have spent my whole life wondering how she could do it, How she did it... I took most of what my life had to offer for granted as she was so wonderful we didn't have to worry about anything. I have and always will be close to her as I am convinced my heart is a large piece of hers. Her smile and the way she composes herself make me so proud to know her, and even more proud to be such a large part of her. I was the gift she never realized was so great, I gave her something she had never had before... I was the first person to call her mom and tell her I love her, I was the first person she held and taught to eat, walk, sleep I was lucky enough to show her how it felt to have her heart walk around outside of her. I had the pleasure of making her a very proud Nana, but being the first for most things wasn't always as glorious as what it seems. She made my life bright she taught me how to treat others, she showed me how to love. She has stood beside me my whole life and has always accepted me for who I am and has never tried to change me. She listens to me daily, she provides advice when I need it or ask for it. She makes me feel better with just hearing her voice. I am beginning to understand more and more everyday that these things that I took for granted many years ago were the greatest gifts I would ever receive in my life. Loving her is the greatest feeling in the world, listening to my little lady talk so highly and so amazingly about such an inspirational woman makes me even more proud to call her My Mom.
I love you Mom more than you will ever know, & I loved you first :) oxo
Thank you for your life long experience, for your unconditional love, and for being there for me each and every day!
Love you xox
Until next time
