Once again,just you and I. We both had a blast seeing tigers and elephants! We randomly had chosen seats that had us placed at an angle where we could see the animals before they were brought out. I remember the Tigers only being a few feet away and we realized how lucky we were! The acrobats and show blew us away! We went home raving to Nick about all the cool things we had seen. I was so happy to have shown you a good time and I always will be.

You came with me on nearly every adventure! This tour of the brewery was so informative and you loved how nicely the process was explained. I remember your astonishing look as we realized cave water was used in the earlier days of the recipe. You thanked me so much for taking you on this adventure and I thanked you for coming.   You were always grateful for our adventures ❤️.

You always had your outfits planned out. You often bought outfits and then hung them on a hanger together. You were always prepared that way for any occasion. I remember how exciting it was for you when I took you downtown with me.

Your confidence never fell short when I took photos for you! You reminded me how much you loved ear rings and accessories. You never wanted to wear too much make up and preferred to look natural. You always stressed how your desire at this age was to be comfortable and it rubbed off on me. I love to be comfortable too 💜.

I remember your determination to lose weight and be healthy and it never fell short of inspiring. I loved how people gasped when they saw you and how happy that made you. Rain or shine you were outside walking and dedicated to your health and wellness.

I met someone named Sandra that reminded me of you...she had to move to Florida to take  care of her Son and law. You would have loved her smart, ambitious and a matriarch just like your mom. I miss her like I miss you. You know I never felt like I had a mom...because mine is not well. I'm missing that connection that we shared...it felt like such a short time and if it had been longer than i know it still wouldn't have felt long enough.  Rest easy Angel

Mom I will always miss the fun we had together. You were more than just a mom, you were also one of my best friends. Love you always.
