Today would have been my Mom's 66th Birthday! Happy Birthday Mom!! On August 22nd it will be 8 years since she died. We miss her being a part of our lives so much! But, we know that her spirit lives on and that we will all see her again someday!!
I've been thinking about her a lot recently and have tried to pinpoint the different things that I learned from her. I guess the greatest thing I learned from her was her example of love towards everyone. She always smiled and made those around her feel special. My children absolutely adored her. Our guest room became "Grandma's Room". She made each of my children feel special and loved for who they were. She never chose favorites. She was incredible! When she passed away a huge hole was felt in our lives. Yet, we feel her closeness to this day. I have felt her presence on many occasions. I have felt her beside my children as they sit at the piano playing it. I have felt her with me as I have had struggles. I am so grateful for her life, for her example and especially for her love. 
Happy Birthday Mom!! We love you and miss you so much!!
