Sixteen years and it still feels like yesterday...

Your posts never fail to brighten my day. I had no idea how much I needed to hear this. Since my mother's death, I've worried how I'd be able to handle having kids without her help and how on earth I'd be able to explain to my kids what my mother was like.

This post brought a peace in my mind that I needed so badly in midst of the chaos in my life right now. And for that I am ever grateful.

You are an amazing person in so many ways. Thank you for that.

You are absolutely correct. There are times I look back and say "what if" and there are moments in my life I'm not proud of. But I honestly don't think I would want to change my life in any way. Just thinking of the moments and the people I would have missed make me grateful for the life I have led. Also, you cannot have times of happiness without knowing sadness. So it all balances out in the end. I'm very sorry you do not have your mother, but also happy that you realize the joys.

My mother is such an intricate part of my daughter's life (and mine obviously.) Thank you for reminding me not to take her for granted.

I love you,

Oh, sweetie. This is one of the most loving, philosophical, heartfelt posts I've ever read. You are truly a marvel and an inspiration. Bless you for this. It reminds me that no matter what happens today (or tomorrow), good or bad, there is a reason and there is a season.

*hugs*

Your constant gratitude and your tagline of As for me? My cup runneth over. -- always challenges me to look at my life from a different perspective. Thank you for that.

I can't imagine losing my mom at such a young age. My mom's mother died 9 years ago and mom says she misses her every day, and I can imagine, considering how much I still miss her. Losing my mom, who's probably my best friend, would be awful. *hug*
