Mother, Magical Moment words Contest Sponsored by Constance la France 11/13/23

It is almost a year since My lovely mother passed away I miss her more than anyone will ever know So many precious memories Shared which will remain in my heart forever Yet her presence is always with me Objects she treasured I just adore Useless items to some, but to me they’re priceless Many things were left Unsaid but one thing is for sure Mum I love you and think of you each day

You are an amazing and loyal daughter . Here I am way far away from my mother and I only call her a few times a month, and I can think of none of her possessions I would care to have when she passes away. Of course, I love her a lot, but she and I are opposites in many ways, and she was quite the eccentric as I was growing up. I sure wish I had more time to spend with her like you did with your dear mom

I understand… I have two pairs of Autumn socks - I still can’t put on, a figurine wedding shoe on my dresser. My dad still holds on to all else. That is ok. Sometimes when I am cleaning I walk into her closet and touch the sweater I Last pulled for her to wear. My heart touches yours, Jan xx

a nicely written Acrostic, Jan. I love 'so many memories'...that's the way I feel about my mom and regret some of the things unsaid...yet my love for her prevails long after her passing. I sincerely liked what you did here. Enjoy your evening, Sara
