I Remember
It's the moments I remember, Mom...
I remember walking beside you in Darmstadt with my handbag and big girl shoes with my heels proudly clicking away on the sidewalk.
I remember how you made Christmas special every year regardless of how much or how little we had.
I remember you playing Bingo with us every night in Darmstadt and I remember the way you held me years later as I cried over a boy.
I remember your food...boy you could cook! You could do everything...and you did it all well.
I remember how beautiful you were at my wedding and I remember the look on your face as you held your new grandson; and then later, your granddaughter. Mom, they were as beautiful as you.
I remember how much you loved me...how much you loved us all. And I know you love us still.
I'm so happy you are now at peace...that you're not in anymore pain and that you are surrounded by your family and friends that have gone before you.
I love you Mom....I always will.
