Missing you still
So it has been a year since I saw you, got to hold your hand, and hear your voice. Your memories race through my mind every day you are in all of my dreams as well. Unfortunately, every time I try to think of a happy time with you, I think back to that day one year ago. It is so vivid it is almost like it happened yesterday. I miss you so much and I feel like a major part of me left with you that day. When we had gone to see you just 2 days before, your calcium had gone sky high, we were so afraid for you. The doctor said not to worry though and that she had a way to fix it. You can't imagine our relief, but only for a day. It wasn't fair, all you went through for those 6 months, and we all thought there would be a happy ending. Boy were we wrong.
Many memories flood my mind, like coming over after a hot day at work and jumping in the pool with you and Skylar wanting to join us, or the many barbeques at your house, and all the times we would go thrift storing in the winter when I had some time off. Older ones too, just so many. One of my favorite ones though was when we were all craving something sweet so we raided the cubbard and the fridge to see what we could whip up. You taught me how to make merangues and we also made lemon bars because we couldn't find Anne's recipe for lemon merangue pie. They were awesome though and we had so much fun that night. We thought we would have a baking night once a month, but like craft night, life got in the way. I did get that recipe from Anne eventually and I am sorry we never got to use it. After I moved out, I didn't get to see you that much exept between classes at school when I could snatch you up for a cigarette or lunch so when you moved to Riverhead and were only a few minutes drive, I was so happy. I am very greatful for those years. Many fond memories were made and I will cherish them forever. If there were such things as angels, you would be one of them.
These songs are for you mom, I miss you.
