Two weeks.

[brightillusions]

Today marks two weeks that my mom's been gone. Yesterday was her memorial service, which was really nice. We had a lot of yellow roses, and it was held in this beautiful little chapel with the whole spire and stained glass windows. No family was there aside from me and my sister, the rest were my high school friends, friends, and my internet

I think you've given me the best hope for moving on. I had never thought about being her legacy, and you are so right. I am so honored to be that, because she was so amazing, not only to me, but to my friends, animals and even strangers. And I'm a product of all of that.

You have a wealth of knowledge and wisdom that reminds me so much of my mom and the person she was. Sounds like your mom did a great job too.

Thank you so much for this, I know it sounds trite, but really, I thank you, you've given me much to think about and an outlook I didn't know I had.

I want you to know I'm always here. Just know that, and I so appreciate your advice and concern.

I love you, sister. So very, very much. Yesterday was lovely, and I enjoyed remembering Mom so much. I think of her every day and things she used to say and do.

Wanted you to know that I am working on a project that I will share with you soon. I think you'll like it.

love you. Call me if you need anything!

It was pretty cool huh? She'd have gotten such a laugh at some of those stories. I am so grateful to you and your mom for coming. My mom sure loved you both and I was glad to have you there.

I'm hanging in there, which is the best I can ask of myself. I get sad when I want, and happy when I want. I can't give up on her, and she's not gonna give up on me.

*HUGS*

I wish I could have been there with you, and I'm so glad you had Sal and Sara and Sarah and everyone else. Even though I only knew her briefly, I know how much you love her, and how much she loves you.

I had completely forgotten about her trying to give you clothes, thats such a mom thing for her to have done. I wanted to add that entry to my memories but it was locked. I'm going to copy the text and save it.

I wish you could have come too, but family is important, and I'm glad you spend time with yours.

Do me a favor, hug your mom and tell her you love her. Just for me.

I love you.
