One Year Without Mama

How quickly time flies.

It has now been a year since I lost my mother so very suddenly. Not a day has gone by without me thinking about her. Not an hour has gone by without me missing her. Not a minute has gone by without me wishing that she was still around. 

I miss her laughter. 

I miss her voice. 

I miss her cheerful nature. 

I miss her calm demeanour in the face of chaos.

I miss my mother. 

They say time heals all wounds. But it has been a year and the wound still feels as fresh as it was a year ago. 

But, I will trudge along in life, comforted by a loving husband and my precious little girl. 

I will continue on living, knowing that my father and brother need me. 

So, time keeps on moving. Until the day, I can finally meet my mother again. 

I love you, mama.
