My Mom…..

This Father’s Day was a bit different than any other.  This Father’s Day was the day my mother died.

I am who I am because of my mom.  She gave me my incredible gift of creativity. She taught me to love art and to love the simple things in life.  She taught me that you don’t have to have a lot of money or a lot of things to enjoy life.  She taught me how to be patient, humble and caring….all in a quiet way.

My mom was one of my best friends.  I will miss her deeply.  I will miss her every day.  I will think of her often.

One of the things I am most grateful for is the time I spent with my mother.  I am also grateful for the time my children had with her.  I saw my mom often and spent many wonderful hours with her.  My children will always remember her laugh, her smile and her love.

She loved the simple things in life.  It didn’t take much to make my mom happy.  She was a wonderful person, a wonderful friend and a wonderful mom.
