My dear sweet mother. It will soon be 5 months since you left us. I can't believe it still. I still pick up the phone 10 times a day to call you. I still go to the house and I know you aren't there but I can still smell the home you made for all of us. Momma. There is so much to tell you. I just wish I could. I wish you could know Baby Beau David. I wish he could see the love we were all blessed to see when you looked at us. I miss you so much Momma and I just want to talk to you. I need to talk to you. We all love you and miss you so much Mom. We just wish we could stop by for a visit. Drink a DDP. EAT A crispy wheel. But I'm so proud you have no more Dialyasis and no more doctor visits. Just wish for one more road trip with you and my sister. Just wish for so many things Momma. I'm really kind of upset with you. Why didn't you tell us how hard this was gonna be? Lol. There are no words I can tell you how much you are love and how much you are missed by all of us Mom. We all know you are standing with Jesus and watching over us and sending little signs to let us know you are with is still. In our ❤️💓💓🌹 forever Mother. Love you deeply.
