Mum🌻🌻
Two years ago today, I lost the most important person in my life — my beautiful mum, my whole world. And not a single day has passed since that I haven’t thought of you, missed you, spoken to you, or wished with all my heart that you were still here with us.
Mum, I miss you more than words could ever explain. I miss your voice, your love, your comfort, your smile, and just knowing you were there. You were my safe place, my strength, and the heart of our family. You were everything to all of us, and life has never been the same without you.
I talk to you every day, Mum. I tell you everything and I hold onto the hope that somehow you can still hear me, still see us, and still know just how deeply you are loved and missed. I hope you can see your beautiful, grand-children and great-grandchildren and how amazing they are doing. I know you would be so proud of them, just as you were always so proud of all of us.
Sunflowers 🌻 will always be yours to me — bright, beautiful, full of warmth and love, just like you. Every time I see one, I think of you and feel a little closer to you.
Two years without you feels impossible, because a part of me went with you the day you left. But I carry you with me in everything I do, every day of my life. We will never forget you, Mum. We will speak your name, hold onto your love, and keep your memory alive in our hearts forever.
Sleep tight, my dear sweet Mama. I love you, I miss you, and I always will. Until we meet again 🌻💛
