Missing My Mother

Tomorrow is my mother's birthday so I thought I
would share one of her pieces with you.
 This is my favorite. She gave it to me one year for Christmas.

She passed away in 1995 after a very brave 3 year fight with cancer. 
She loved to paint more than anything and statues and figurines were her favorite.

Happy Birthday Mom, I miss you.

hi sweetie,

i am sending hugs. what a dear piece of your mother's.

to mark my mom's birthday/passing, as you know, my sisters and i visited one of her favorite places and we all bought ourselves new PJs, because she loved to give pajamas as presents.

i'm glad you are celebrating her in a special way. perhaps enjoy her favorite dessert, too.

love, hugs and popcorn,
elyse

Oh, I gasped when I saw the title of today's post.
I still have my mother, but I dread the day I won't. I know the ache will be almost unbearable.
I know this because I lost my father a couple of years ago, after his brave but very hard battle against an aggressive esophageal cancer. I think of him every day, whereas I didn't before he got sick. Lesson learned too late.
I am so, so sorry that you have lost her, but I'm glad that you have good memories to cherish. I do, too.
