  31. My dear sister, the love between sisters is a special bond & love, as is the love of our entire family. We never had a chance to tell each other I love you before your physical time on this earth was over, but deep down we both knew that our love for each other was forever. I will miss you so much until we are united once again. Love you sis!

  32. If I only had five minutes the day you passed away,
    I would have had time to tell you all the things I needed to say.

    I never got to tell you how much you mean to me,
    Or that you were the best mom, better than any woman could be.

    The last time that I talked to you
    I wish I would have known.
    I would have said I love you,
    and kept you on the phone.

    If I only had five minutes,
    the morning you passed away,
    I’d give you one last hug so tight and see your great big smile.
    I’d tell you that I don’t think I could live without you,
    not even for awhile.
    I’d kiss your cheek and take your hand and tell you it’s okay to go
    And tell you that I’ll miss you,
    more than you’ll ever know.

    But you were gone so quickly,
    One last car ride you’d take.
    Before you even knew it,
    you were standing at heavens gate.
    Now God has called upon you,
    It’s time to get your wings.
    To leave this life behind you,
    And enjoy all of heavens beautiful things.
    So wait for me in heaven Mom,
    Don’t let me come alone.
    The day the angels come for me,
    Please be there to bring me home.

  33. Mom,

    I had to share this it touched me when I read it.

    Your Mother is always with you. She’s the whisper of the leaves as you walk down the street. She’s the smell of certain foods you remember, flowers you pick, the fragrance of life itself. She’s the cool hand on your brow when you’re not feeling well. She’s your breath in the air on a cold winter’s day. She is the sound of the rain that lulls you to sleep, the color of a rainbow; she is the Christmas morning. Your mother lives inside your laughter. She’s the place you came from, your first home, and she’s the map you follow with every step you take. She’s your first love, your first friend even your first enemy, but nothing on earth can separate you not time, not space….not even death.

    If I could just have one more day! I love you and miss you more than you know!
