It's been another year and its still just as hard. I wish so much that were here with. Life just hasn't been the same since you left. It only seems to be getting harder. They say it will get easier with time but that's not true because it has only gotten harder for me. Sometimes I don't know if I can continue without you. I know I have to try for my kids. I know you wouldn't want me to give up. I love you and miss you so much. Save a place for me mom. I will be there with you one day. I want you, dad and Preston to be the first people I see waiting for me when I get there.

Happy Birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday to my mom, happy birthday to you
I love you and miss you mom.
I miss you so much mom. It will be 10 years this year since we lost you and it's still so hard. It still doesn't feel like it's been that long. So many things have changed since you've been gone. Everything would be better with you here. I was so lucky for all the time I did get with you but it still wasn't enough. We got a puppy that I named Molly and it seems to fit her. She was born on the same day you died (December 19th). Seems strange but also good because that gives us something good on that day. I love you mama and miss you always. You were the best mom ever. One day I will be with you again so until then I will just have to hold onto all the good memories we had together.
I love you mom so now I have something to tell you.
Listen carefully.
You have given me so much.
I want to give back.
You have been there for me, even when I didn’t deserve it.
You have wiped my tears and hugged me at my worse.
You have given me my strength and encouragement.
You are my best friend.
Now let me tell you something,
I will be there for you always.
I will be there to take care of you when you can’t care for yourself.
I will be your voice when you can’t speak.
I will be your ears when you start to lose your hearing.
I will be your feet when you can’t walk anymore.
I will be your eyes when you start to lose your sight.
I will be your chef when you can’t cook anymore
I will change your sheets on your bed when your bladder weakens.
Don’t worry mom, I will take care of you.
You have taken care of me for so long.
You won’t be alone.
I will wash your hair when you are unable to do it anymore.
You can count on me.
I will sit beside you and keep you company when you are lonely.
We will talk about the good old times and we do have a lot of them.
I will be there to hold your hand when you’re in pain.
I will tell you it is ok mom.
You see mom, it’s my turn to take care of you.
You gave me life.
You made me the person I have become.
I hope I haven’t disappointed you.
Remember when it’s your time to go,
I love you mom.
I owe god for giving me the best mom.
Love,
Your favorite daughter
Today we had another Connolly family reunion. It seems to come and go so fast though. I wish you were there. I miss you so much. Everyone is getting old but when it comes to the Connolly, everyone is still sassy. All the kids are getting older. I wish you didn't leave so soon. I love you mom.
You would have been 65 tomorrow. I miss you. You were the best mom I could have ever wanted or asked for. Have a good celebration in heaven.

Almost Fair Time
Its getting close to the York county fair time again. I always think about you during or around the fair time. You always loved the fair time. The excitement you would have. You enjoyed the funnel cakes. We would get a funnel cake with bavarian and share it. It was so good. Mom, remember the last karaoke we went to at the fair and Robby got up and sang and we would wistle at him. He was good. The first song he sang was sweet child of mine by guns n roses and we thought oh no because John use to sing it but was terrible at it but Robby didn't sound too bad singing it. I haven't been to karaoke since you left. Nothing really has been the same. We use to walk through the fair on Saturday night just the two of us too with Robby being at work and someone would watch my kids and it was always great. That is when we would get our funnel cake to share. You left me with millions of good memories that we had together. You also always loved walking through the buildings and voting for my kids in the baby contest. Sebastian is the first baby you are not able to vote for or be in his life. I wish you could be in his life. Grandma's little buddy Robert is going on 6 and will be starting kindergarten this year. I love you and miss you so much mom every single day. I do so much to try to still make you proud of me.
Easter memories
I have been thinking about you a lot lately. Maybe because today is Easter. You always loved Easter. You loved the candy and our family get togethers. You would put together Easter egg hunts for all of the kids and they all loved it. You always made sure they got the same amount of eggs. You were a fair person. You also often planned the get togethers and you would get so stressed out and always would say that you were not doing it anymore but when the next year came, you were at it again. You loved family. Family was important to you. I think you were the heart of the family. I miss you so much. I am sure you are celebrating Easter with grandma. You use to always make the potato salad but now I make it. I also still do the Easter egg hunts. I have to keep that tradition. You are missed by everyone. I love you mom.
