Yesterday, it was seven months since I lost Mum. I had no internet access so couldn't blog, but wanted to write this..
Feel so much more positive than I thought possible! I still miss Mum still every day, but life has a way of compensating and I find myself smiling again at the simple things once more, the sun shining again when I felt it never would, the new lambs jumping in the fields, the silly jokes my youngest son like to tell. Easter has always beena big family gathering at Mums, this year we will descend on my sisters and smile when we remember that Mum always had to replace at least 2 eggs after she had nibbled her way through the ones she bought for the kids!! My wonderful stepdad is becoming close to one of his (and Mums) dear friends, and I truly wish him happiness once more. No-one could have cared for Mum more tenderly than he did, while still maintaining her dignity, and I know that he still loves Mum deeply. He deserves the chance to find happiness again. As a family we are healing,Mum taught us to be survivors, and although tears still fall, laughter often follows.
Whenever the sun shines, I know that Mum is smiling too, she loved the sunshine and I feel the sunshine gently flowing back in.xx
Love and ((hugs)) to everyone , Sharonxx
