Round up of the last couple of days...

So where have I been. I've been here. Taking a back seat and letting others post there feelings, thoughts, memories. Wednesday was Mom's two year Heavenly Anniversary. John and I spent some nice quite time at the cemetery. That evening we all (all meaning all that were here in New York. Bob, Sandi, Gavin & Mason were home in Pennsylvania) went out for dinner to Ciao Baby! One of Mom's favorite restaurants. We had a nice dinner. It started out with tears when the waiter asked us what we were celebrating...umm, silence and then John explained. Michael gave a toast to Mom and we all had a nice time.

I spent the rest of the week getting the house together for the Memorial party. We had a great turn out and Mom was there in spirit. Stories were told, tears were cried but we did it together. Mom has touched so many lives that I know that her spirit lives on. She lives on in every one of us. She is watching us from afar but I am confident that one day we will all be together again, rejoicing together. But until then I will continue to shed my tears wishing and hoping that I could have just one more day with her. To see her face, hear her laughter, smell her perfume and just be together.

The post before this was written by some family members at the Memorial BBQ. I had the computer set up for those who wanted to leave a memory. It's hard to do...just me I know. A few started and could not go on. It's okay. I understand. The ones that left a memory...thank you, it's such an honor to have.

Mom...know that I miss you so much that it hurts. I hope that I am doing you proud in everything I do.

Happy Heavenly Anniversary!
