NancyM Posted February 24, 2007 Report Share Posted February 24, 2007 Today, Feb. 24th is a year since my mom passed. I can't believe it's a year already but then again it seems like forever since I last saw her, I miss her everyday. It has been a very pleasant day so far, I had a nice breakfast out with my son and daughter in law who is pregnant and due in May, when we returned home there was a floral delivery from my other son, daughter in law and grand daughter, a beautiful bouquet of yellow dasies my favorites, with a sweet card telling me they are thinking of me. It's so nice they all remembered and thought about my mom and how I would be today. I am blessed. I wish this next year to be a better one then last year, and filled with more happy memories then tears. Thank you all for being here for me this past year, I read all the posts everyday, it has helped me through some tough times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoriS. Posted February 26, 2007 Report Share Posted February 26, 2007 It sounds like you had a great day despite the fact of your loss. You can look at it as a celebration of her life here on earth as your children honored you with flowers. I hope that when I reach the one year mark (not until October) that it will be a day of hope and being greatful rather than a day of dread.Thanks for sharing with us your beautiful day!!!Lori Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NancyM Posted February 26, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2007 Lori,I was "dreading" the year mark, that's one reason I arranged to have the breakfast with my son, I wanted to stay busy but still be with family. I don't think I will ever stop grieving the loss of my mom, but I made it through all the "firsts" without her and know that if I don't live well and go on with life and make new happy memories I will not be honoring her. It's what all mothers want for their children, to have a good life, and while I'll miss her forever I will try and live a good and happy life, and carry her with me in my heart. Thank you to all who responded, this is such a nice place to share not only the sad feelings but the good ones too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
