Your ‘I love you’ in the quiet of the dawn are the most beautiful words I have ever heard.  They are a breath of fresh air to my tired soul and music to my sad heart. I love you too, Mom…and I miss you.  I miss your laughter and your smiling eyes. I miss your home-cooked meals and the lazy afternoons we spend together just watching TV.  I miss your happy and funny stories.  I long for your embrace and the touch of your hand on mine.

You have given me your heart and your life…thank you for your love and for everything you have done for me, Mom.  You are the best mother one could ever have…I would be lost without you.  I love you.
