Good Night Mom

Good night mom, I miss you every day. To hear your voice speak so tenderly. It's hard to believe I have not seen you in five years. Yet your tender heart impacts us all through the year. Memories of Christmas past. Watching you bake fruitcakes and cookies too. Fondest memories that we embrace. While we think of you. Each one of us feels you closely. Every day of our lives. After all, you taught us the meaning. Of what Christmas really means. Its family, near or far. Gathering together, talking on the phone. It's the joy we bring to others. Good night mom. I will see you one day soon. Yet it is my turn now. To try my best to be a bit like you.
