Losing a parent…

It’s never easy. It will never get easier.

We miss them…

It’s been almost 4 years since we lost our mother to cancer. It’s still not easy. She still is on my favorites list on my IPhone. I can’t remove her. I’m not strong enough to. I don’t want to lose the reminder of what I lost. 

I will never get over it. I move on because I have to. 

I will never be ok with it. I am strong for my family because I need to be.

But my heart is broken. I am still mad about it. 

I wish you were still here. 

Here… 

To watch your beautiful grand babies grow up

To watch your face light up when watching them grow

To harass me

To constantly pressure me to marry Aly

To see me set goals, crush them, and achieve so much

For the fun that we would have. I miss your orneriness! You could tease people like no other. It’s why I enjoy doing it too.

It’s all gone though

We must move on. Or at least carry on. Folding up in weakness is not an option. 

We become stronger… 

We appreciate the fragility of life more…

We love people more intensely…
