This is my Mom & Mamaw. You don't see them much, because they both hold firm beliefs that the camera is an evil torture device, and if you pause for a picture, you'll surely have your eyes burned right out of your sockets. Or something along those lines.
I love these two women *SO* much... and I love to see them laughing together. I admire their strength, their courage, and their love for each other and their family. Unfortunately I inherited ALOT of their little quirks (crunch ice around me & I'll punch your lights out... NO, seriously!) ... and a few of their physical traits (thanks for the green eyes, but you can have this BUTT back!) ... but when all is said & done, I can only hope to be as great a role model for my family as they both have been to mine.
She held it together nicely - I wouldn't have expected anything different - but I know it must have been difficult.
I can't imagine what it's like to lose a child, and I hope I never, ever have to find out. Sometimes I get upset just thinking about everything my mom has gone through in her life - it doesn't seem fair that a person so kind and tender-hearted should have to go through so many heartaches & trials in one lifetime.
I wish I could fix it. But I can't. And that stinks.
I love you, Mom.

How sweet, you made me cry. I love you soooo much. But you didn't have to put the pictures on there, ugh.....
I've had your blog Bm'd for a while now and check in periodically, and though I may be a little late, I wanted to tell you, I'll be praying for your family. What a tremendous loss you must feel and though there are no words that can make it right, just know that you have what some don't and that's the peace of mind knowing that you WILL see him again some day.I know it doesn't remove the pain but maybe it will help to ease it just a little. God Bless and you'll be in my prayers.
