My Mother…..
Mommy,
I thank you for everything—for your guidance, your strength, and the unwavering, unconditional love you poured into my life. Losing you has been the hardest reality to accept, and my heart still struggles to make sense of this new world without you in it.
Your wings were ready…
but our hearts were not.
Yet even in this grief, I hold on to the truth that you are now in the presence of the Lord, whole, at peace, and wrapped in His eternal glory. The love you carried, the prayers you prayed, and the wisdom you shared remain with us, shaping us still.
