Christmas was ok and we celebrated in my beautiful mum's honour and had lots of FUN. Just like she told us to and would have wanted. Of course we missed her more than words can say and we really kept her memory alive. 

Now the festives have ended and I'm back home. I literally am dreading the New Year. It's my Mums Birthday on New Years Eve too. I plan to just be in my pjs and chill with my dad and hubby. I really don't want the New Year to come. I don't want a year to start that my beautiful mum won't have lived in. I know it will come and I know I will find inner strength. If this year has taught me anything it's I'm stronger than I ever knew, I cope better than I ever knew. This is the hardest thing I have ever faced. It's werid but I know I can do this because my mum raised me and gave me all these skills. I just wish she was with me. I miss her so much, it still hurts like it was yesterday.   Xxx

    Thank you Sunshine. My niece is 14, likes dancing, make up. My niece has brought us a lot of joy and laughs along the way. Lovely that your family home was full of laughter and love and that it will continue for your niece/nephew xx

    Kate - a rocky old road is a good description, on how tough it is. As many of you have said on here, grief is like a roller coaster of emotions or waves. The wave might be still on the surface, but there is always that undercurrent and then that big wave hits you again - I had a lot of those big waves last week. I’m sure all our mum’s are helping us on this journey and that our mum’s are always near us. 

    A big thank you for listening to me and replying to my messages. This site has and is a bit like therapy for me, been able to write my personal thoughts has helped. Thank you to the lovely people on here - namecheck - GBear, Kate, Lou, Sunshine, SPu.

    Hoping you all get through the week ok xx

    Sending my love and hugs to all, and thinking of you all.
