It's been one year since mom passed. Sometimes, it's hard to believe that she's physically gone, but I know that she lives on through her legacy.
Our parents taught us the importance of family, hard work, sacrifice, community, and giving. They also showed us that you can live your dreams even if you start with very modest beginnings. I will always be grateful for these gifts and appreciative of the opportunities that our mom and dad gave us. Mom told me that I would better appreciate what I have if I have to work for it. She was right.
Mom and dad loved their garden. They had beautiful flowers and fruit trees that we all enjoyed. On this 1 year anniversary, Jim, Jordan and I are creating a new flower garden in our yard. We're starting with about 20 roses and 18 dahlias. Perhaps, they'll see the garden from where they are.
