Thinking

Lately I've had a ton on my mind. I've never been so excited, yet down, in my entire life. I think the thing that is weighing so heavily on my mind is the fact that I miss my mom so much.

My mom passed when I was 12 years old, and my life has never been the same. Usually I'm pretty good about staying positive, and appreciating what I have now, instead of reflecting on the past so much. But it's hard to not try to imagine how things would be if she were still here. I could really use the support right now. Not that my husband and sisters aren't great. They are, but there's no one like your mom. She raised my siblings and I to be the best people that we can be. I have so many wonderful memories of her and sometimes it just breaks my heart that my child won't know her. I know my mom would have been an awesome grandmother, I wish I would be able to experience the bond that they would have shared.
