A new experience
Paula,
Big hugs coming your way. I know this birthday was hard for you. Remember altho your mom is not here, she is still in your heart. Don't let her passing take over your life. Rejoice in what you have accomplished and know that she would be so proud of you.
My mom passed away 2 days before my birthday this year and 1 day after she was suppose to fly here to live with us. It is hard at times and I do miss her terribly, but I know she is now without pain nor is she suffering. That makes it so much easier.
My niece is here right now, so haven't been on the computer much. She will be here another week, then I will be able to check posts more often.
Mary
