Today is the birthday of my mom and her twin sister . . . our first without Mom.
Me and Mom
Mom really enjoyed birthday meals! I remember how she always put fun decorations on the table.
This is a subdued day for me. We miss Mom and it feels strange that she isn't on the other end of the phone, that I couldn't send her flowers or chocolates today. May she rest in peace.
Oh Katherine,
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry. I will be praying for you today!
I have heard that first birthdays after the death of a loved one can be tough. God be with you and your family.
ReplyDeleteSo sorry... prayers coming your way.
ReplyDeleteThose are absolutely gorgeous photos, Katherine! You look so much like your mom and you are both so beautiful! She'd be so proud of the mother you are today!
ReplyDeleteKatherine,
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry that you had to experience such a "first."
I can only imagine how hard it must have been. But, I loved
seeing the pictures of you with your mom. I'm struck by how
much precious Mary favors your mother when I see the
picture of you and your mom at the table. :)
You are in my prayers.
It is a real tragedy that you lost your mom so young. I am so sorry for your lost. Please know your family is in our prayers.
ReplyDeleteThank you for all your kind sentiments and prayers.
ReplyDeletePrayers for you and your family!
