We’ve all had loved ones who have passed, some more recently than others, and some more tragically than others. Usually no matter what the circumstances, there is grief, and many times depression, loneliness, and other emotions on a day of remembrance. Whether our dearly departed are near in memory, or buried deep in the past, I’ve always felt like they watch over us from day to day.
Today I am honoring the woman who gave birth to the person I hold dearest in this world. It has been 10 years to this day since her passing, and if I could meet her today, I would hug her and tthank her for bringing Paige into my life. Without this woman, I never would have understood the true meanings of devotion, love, or the fulfillment that comes with a long-term commitment and bond.
Rest in Peace Mom.

I just read this and it is wonderful! Thanks Marshall. Like Mom said she had Paige for me and I am and always will be thankful for that. Mom was the best Mom in the world. Not a day goes by that she is not in my thoughts and heart. Always remember Paige that Mom loved you, adored you, worried about you and it was the hardest thing she could do was leave her babies. I am sorry that your time was cut short with her but know that she fought so hard to be here with you. She watches over and I know that she it VERY proud of you and the woman you are today. I love you very much and miss you every day. You will always be my baby sister.
Hugs, Stacey
