Today's the third. I know your birthday was June 1st. But since I'm your 3rd, I wanted to write today.  You know I hated getting lost in your pile of kids. I knew my position as a middle child. I loved it. I hated it. 2 big sisters and 1 little sister. I couldn't understand the meaning of birth order. Then we both got older and closer. You explained what being a middle child meant. I fully understand what it takes to be a middle and I thank you and love you. I hope I come close to what a middle child is and meant to you. You were one wise woman and know I've got this. ❤❤❤❤❤ after all you gave it to me.

Happy Mother's Day Aunt Carol...another great mom that played a great part in my life. I miss our talks and guidance. Whenever I spoke to you I'd be in a better frame of mind after. I will always love you. Gone but never forgotten.

Dear Grammy Gram, 
It is now the summer of 2015....I wish I could say that the pain has subsided, but it hasn't. I know that you are no longer in pain, and finally are at peace but I miss you so much. I wish you could see how Kori and Khloe have grown...I wish you could see all of us. I am almost done with school, and although it is hard, I know if you were here you would push me to reach my fullest potential. 
I feel lost without my best friend...but I know I will see you again. there is never a day that I do not think of you. heck, you're on my mind more than people realize. your birthday is coming up, and I plan to just listen to the music you always played! I love you Gramma....more than you will ever know!

1 year gone but never, ever forgotten. I love you Moma.

MOM. IT'S BEEN A WHOLE YEAR SINCE YOU LEFT, WE MISS YOU SO MUCH!IT HAS BEEN A HARD YEAR WITH MANY CHANGES, BUT WE ARE HANDLING IT BY STICKING TOGETHER AND LEANING ON JEHOVAH. OUR LOVE FOR YOU WILL NEVER STOP AND I LOOK FOWARD TO SEEING YOU INPARIDISE! I LOVE AND MISS YOU, PAM

Mom this month marks 9 months since your passing.  I wish I could say I'm handling the loss easier.  My sisters and I try to hold each other close just like you asked us to. I miss you. I miss us. Love you. Traci

Ma, I heard one of your favorite songs today on the radio, "Someday We'll Be Together." By Diana Ross and the Supremes. It reminded me of a time in your life when you were happy! :) I also remember the song I sang to you the last time I saw you, "You Are My Sunshine!" You sang, laughed and danced with me. So, today, I want you to know that "You Are My Sunshine".....And I Miss You And Love You! Nan

Mom I miss you so much. You are alive in my heart and that helps. But my heart hurts because I miss and love you very much. I'm always thinking of you Momma - forever.

Mom today you turn 80 and what a beautiful day it is. I think of you and smile at the good memories. You are so missed. Love you so much.
Traci

MOM, your birthday is coming up and I realize how much I am missing you! You were such a force in our lives and it is so hard without you, there is this empty hole in my heart, in my life. I love you and I remember the good times. I love you Mommy and that will never change,And I know how much you loved your children and your family. You brought Jehovah in our lives and that is the greatest gift you could have given us. Jehovah helps us thru these days and nights. Thank you Mom, LOVE YOU, Pam

Momma, I'm so glad that you are not in pain any longer or lonely anymore. But this does not make my heart hurt any less. In fact, it is broken over the loss of you. I miss you more than words can say!! But I will be strong, and try to make you proud of me. I promise I will keep your memory alive in my grandchildren too. Until I see you again, my sweet Mother.....I Love You!

Mom thank you for all the intangible gifts you have given to me. They force me to go out every day whether I want to or not and be the best I can be. Thank you for always being my number 1 cheerleader. I miss you and feel your absence every day. I love you so much.

I love you MOM,your love for us still shines brightly for us.

Mommy, each day I miss you more<3 I am glad you are now at peace and more and more each day I realize how much you meant to me and how much you taught us. I love you so much and I appreciate now how much you taught us about life and how to deal with things. We are grieving but we are growing . Thank you MOM, PAM
