It feels like yesterday, the house feels quieter than normal, even though it isn't the house I grew up in with my mom. It is in California. 14 years since my beloved mother passed away. I feel it in the heart each year. I come across so many people in my day to day life, and see how lucky some are to still their mother. There is so much I wanted to share with my mom.

That's if you believe in Heaven, which I do :) I know she is in Heaven, and she is no longer in the pain she was Continue Reading
