I have good days and bad days. More of them are good ones, I'm happy to say. But even on the good ones, I miss my mom. I miss her face, I miss her voice. I miss knowing she was right there, within reach. The grief comes and goes, and I allow myself to take it in whenever it shows up.
I thought about her while arranging these flowers. I definitely feel her spirit close by which gives me so much comfort. These waters are difficult to navigate, but I'm doing the best that I can.
love you.

Bella,
For me,June 1 marked 1 year without mom and I miss her so much. Yesterday I received a photo of my mom in the mail, my cousin thought I might like it......I cried for hours. Somedays are better than others that's for sure!
Huge hug,
Angela

This is so true, grief comes and goes, recedes and then crashes over like a wave. You are doing so well. Beautiful flowers, beautiful photograph.
