The Hamptons

What is a family?
A group of people brought together in love that share the journey of everyday life together--
We are part of the plan....our mother and father give us life, they give us love. We share experiences that we came to this earth to have-
Joy, love, pain, sorrow....
What is a family without my mom?
Sad....lonely...sometimes I feel an empty feeling...
Happy---because I know that she is out of pain. She is healthy.
She is with loved ones in a happy place.
I love this old family picture!
When I look at it, I am reminded of
how beautiful my mom is, and how talented, and how loving.
When I look at this picture, I noticed she is in the center---
how fitting!
She was, and still is the center of my life.
She gave birth to me and nurtured me,
taught me and loved me. She made me feel special.
She was not only my mother, but my friend. When I would feel down, I would call her up---
just to hear her voice would make things better. We could talk for hours and hours.
She was always interested in everything in my life.
She taught me about homemaking and mothering. She taught me that lifes' challenges come...
but we must endure---she endured so patiently and cheerfully.
I am motivated to become a better person, wife, mother, daughter- because of her example.
I have a mom who believes in me and I don't have the heart to let her down...
