Mom, Almost one year has gone by, but I still feel you at my side every day. The last years that we had together were the best years of my life. We had such good times and you have given me GREAT memories. When the holidays came around, I remembered that was your favorite one. So I decorated like you would have wanted me to. I also saw you waving your hand and saying"with that card that you have, I want a...". So I took care of all that you would have asked me to and will do so for the coming years. MISS AND LOVE YOU DEARLY
