Two Years

Two years ago I got the call that would begin the transformation of my life as it is now. Two years of seeing the depths of darkness that no human being should ever have to see. Two years of butterflies, pennies, or feathers that are supposed to be you. One trillion pennies dumped in front of me could never take the place of, as Paul said it, "The two of you light up when you see each other". My firstborn,  first grandchild, oldest cousin, big brother (and hero) to three, my soul partner, and great friend you are terribly missed. I think of you every single day.  You live in my heart and I feel you , subtly around me.
Thank you for coming into my life and teaching me so much. I am honored to be your mother, and not a day goes by that you aren't influencing my life in some way. I treasure our memories and our secrets are locked inside of me. You brought so much joy to the world, I wish you could have felt that in your darkest hours.
My love forever,
Your Mother






Do you ever stop thinking about them or loving them? No. Do you learn to appreciate the most simple moments? Absolutely.
