Bittersweet Remembrance, Dedication To My Mom


 
  Bittersweet Remembrance, Dedication To My Mom
Bittersweet Remembrance, Dedication To My Mom
Photo of the cross stitch I made for my Mom years ago.
After my Mom passed, my Dad asked if there was anything I would like of hers. I of course thought of this cross stitch which I had given to her on Mother's Day.
It is now hanging in my home.

This will be my first Mother’s Day without my Mom.
The bond one shares with a Mother is so Special and Unique.
I will cherish, always, the time we shared together.
At times the pain feels so fresh and cuts me to the quick.
At times the pain is beyond belief.
I hope and pray that time will heal. Her voice, her laughter are no longer there when I phone to share some precious part of my life, thoughts and dreams.
Not a day, nor a moment goes by without loving thoughts and memories of my Mom
I have store her voice, her laughter, her smile, that twinkle in her eyes, her courage, her strength and yes her tears in my heart.
I know then, that my Mom lives on within me.
Happy Mother’s Day, Mom. I love you.

member since: 1/8/2007 A beautiful tribute, Roxanne. It truly brought tears to my eyes. We also had a bittersweet Mother's Day, as it was our first without our beloved Grandmother, Susie girl. She passed last June. My heart goes out to you and your family, for I know those memories are wonderful and painful at the same time. Take care, Kimi

  Beautiful work Roxanne.
I still have my mother, but she still lives in South Africa, and we have lived in Denmark for the past 18 years. She is now 89, and at times it is very hard to be so far from her.

  What a precious remembrance...the workmanship is perfection as is the saying, Roxanne.

I cried a lot, yesterday. I know you did the same, sweetie...

I have Mom and Pop's Wedding Photo hanging in the living room. Next to it is a lighted star. There's a blinking bulb in the lighted star. I have two angels watching over me...

  Nicely done Roxanne. My husband's mother passed away 21 years ago when he was 23. Time eases the pain, but the memories are still fresh and now wonderful and not so painful. Though it would've been nice had she been around to see her grandchildren, we know she sees them from heaven and takes care of us all. God bless you and your family during this time.

  A moving dedication to your Mom, Roxanne. My Mom is still with us, she's
now 72. I have a hard time getting a grip on her age; to me she will be forever young.

  Roxanne what a sweet way to remember Mom. In a healthy family, our moms touch like no one else can. I am a nurse and elderly confused folks often call for 'Mama.'They are associated with comfort, love and safety.

  This is really heartfelt Roxanne. My mom passed away too about 25 years now but her memory feels like it was just yesterday. I guess they always stay alive in our hearts because of the love we feel. Our thoughts and prayers are with you!

  Roxanne- Good day my dear friend. A most touching story behind the picture. Doing things like this cross stitch for your mom, and now having it back, Just rekindles the love that went into it. You can probably recall the days you worked on it and how proud your mother must have been when you gave it to her.
A wonderful picuture that is excellent in all ways.. Color, clarity, lighting, details, all done to perfection.
A special picture for remembering a special lady.
Have a wonderful night, a fabulous tomorrow, take care, be safe out there, enjoy

  This is so touching, Roxanne. I lost my mom in 1993, and I can certainly relate to your feelings. It does get easier over time, but trust me, she will always be with you.
