one year ago
My mother passed away one year ago today. I don't really have any words to say. I still don't really know how to talk about it. Some things have been so strange. Some have been hurtful, even infuriating. Some just sad. Some a huge relief. An obvious range of emotions I can't put into words yet - not unlike when she was alive. But I loved her. And I know she loved me. And I felt it important to acknowledge this day. As I have mentioned before, my father has been gone for many years now. I still think of him when I look at the moon. It makes me happy to think my mother is with him. And I suppose parents' love is never very far away. I know my love would be with my children no matter what. I hope they know I am thinking of them ❤

I'm sorry your parents are gone. They look like a sweet couple...very grandma and granpa-ish. I took great comfort in knowing that when my grandfather passed away that he was finally reunited with my grandmother who I never met. They had been apart for 34 years. Hope your day is filled with happy thoughts, too.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry for your loss Megan. Very touching words and thoughts, thankyou for sharing.
ReplyDeleteMissed you today, I went in the library! Hope your back heals up real quick!
i'm really sorry about this anniversary and can understand your mixed emotions. it doesn't matter how old you are when you've lost both parents, it still leaves a big void. i've lost both of mine and sometimes i feel like an orphan.
ReplyDeleteyour love for your kids is evident. i'm sure they will always feel it. hope your back is feeling better and the rest of you, too.
xo, cindy
ps i love your mom's dress. very colorful.
I am so sorry it must be hard not having your mommy there to talk to. Hope you can have a happy day thinking about all the wonderful things you loved about her.
ReplyDeleteMegan,
ReplyDeleteI can't believe a whole year has gone by since your mom passed away. What a sweet picture you posted of your parents together, which describes them even now . . . together! I bet they have those same smiles when they think of YOU and how much they miss you, too.
