I loved making this card for
MOM a few years ago.
I carry your heart with me,
(I carry it in my heart).
~e. e. cummings
"I miss you, MOM!"
All that I am or hope to be
I owe to my mother.

"Thank you, mom."
I struggle with my mothers death. It has been very hard at times to cope with
her loss. I miss her terribly. This Mother's Day I wish I could give her a card. She
is in my heart, she gave me her heart. I think about calling her until I stop when
reality says she's gone. We shared so much together, mostly daily events. I loved
chatting with her and she was always eager to listen, enjoying whatever I shared
with her. She loved me. I made this card for her the year before she passed.
Mom and Me and our Model A Ford!
I was 1 year old.
Mom at 18 years old.
She was as beautiful inside as outside.

I cherish my memories. They are precious. Her heart was huge and loving. She was
patient and kind. She loved life. I will always remember how she delighted in her
children and family and being with them as often as possible. Such the social butterfly.
I composed a poem to her one Mother's Day and every year I made a very special
card for her, a labor of love. She saved every card I ever gave her. They were in her
personal effects when she passed. Now each card is a prized possession of mine.
HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY, MOM. I LOVE YOU.
xoxo
