Remembering Mom

Today is the 3rd anniversary of my mother's passing. There isn't a single day that goes by that I don't think about her. I miss her and love her as much today as I did 3 years ago. The hole in my heart that she left is just as empty as it was 3 years ago. But there is a fullness in my heart that helps ease the pain of her loss. That fullness is Tyler, and it is because of him that I have not lost my mind over losing my mom too soon. There isn't a single day that goes by that I don't thank God for this little boy. And for the time that I had with my mother. And I know that my mom would have LOVED this little boy. She would have spoiled him and he would have been the center of her world. I hate that she doesn't get to know him, and that he doesn't get to know her. But we'll just keep telling him stories about her, and he will know her as well as he can.

This past weekend we visited Nana Scoggin and played in her beautiful yard, and with her neighbors' miniature horses. On Saturday, we drive to Union Mills with Nana, Grandpa, Uncle Eddie, & Miss Emily. We let Tyler play in the cemetery and he was introduced to catepillars, which he LOVED! The weather was beautiful, and we had a nice, quick visit there. And so, I won't say any more. Just enjoy some pics from our weekend.

We love you, Mom. And we miss you every day.

What I remember about you mom was how fun and energetic she was. You are that same kind of mom to Tyler and she would be so happy to know it. It is sad that Tyler won't know her, but he will know so much about what kind of mom she was, just by watching you. Happy Mother's Day!
