Oh Momma,
How is it possible that its been 3 years since I last held your hand in mine, kissed you and said good bye for now? How does time move that quickly? This year has by far been the most interesting. Dad has a wonderful girlfriend and her family has accepted us as their own and we have them as well. You would love R, Mom you really would. If you were still here and we somehow met them you two would be really good friends.
I've made a move that we all knew I needed to make. I'm getting my teaching credential! It has been such an exciting and wonderful time. I'm beyond happy. I just wish you were here to hear me talk about it and to be excited with me.
This year I've grown so much. We all have really. I feel like this is the first year that I haven't dreaded this month. It's been eye opening to realize that as much as I miss you I really am capable of going on without you. I'm so glad that you taught me that when grandma died.
Thank you for the memories I have. The laughter I find in my heart daily filled with memories of you and me. Thank you for showing me what it takes to move forward but still keeping my memories of us alive. Thank you for your love.
I love you Mom.
