If you knew Mom, you know how much she loved you. She was the kind of mom who took the chicken wing and the crust of bread and made you believe they were her favorites. She put others first. She was a snuggler. Her lap was a magnet for children. She was a singer. Country music and hymns were her music. She taught me to crochet, to cook, to bake, to forgive, to look for ways to help, to love big even when it hurts. Everyone thinks their mom was the best, but my mom was the best mom to everyone. She was a shelter in any storm. Her arms were always ready to embrace. She saw people for who they were and loved them right where they stood. She didn’t ask for more in people nor in life. She was an anchor for so many.
Continue to celebrate the joy she brought to your life. Think of her with a smile on your lips. She is singing and dancing and laughing with the Lord whom she loved so dearly. She is whole and healthy again. What more could anyone want for her?
And… if you get a minute give Dad a call. He misses her, and the house is way too quiet.
