This Sunday will be the first Mother’s Day I will celebrate without my mom here with me. That doesn’t mean that I won’t still celebrate her. We might not have always seen eye to eye, but we had so many good times. Most people will tell you that I am just like my Dad, but in so many ways I am like her.
When I work way passed Hallie’s bedtime planning the perfect birthday party for her, my Mom is there.
When I pick out the perfect touches to each room in our house, Mom’s there.
When I read Hallie Mrs. Gigglebelly is coming for Tea or Jillian Jiggs, Mom is with us.
The memories I have with my Mom will live on through Hallie and I. So this Mother’s Day, even though I know I will miss her, I refuse to be sad because I have so much to teach Hallie about her Nana. Happy Mother’s Day friends!
What a strong, sweet post!! And what beautiful pics
You are so right Kelly, she is still with you. Hugs and prayers this week.
You sometimes remind me a lot of mom. Mostly dad, but a lot of mom too. You have a good mix. I will be missing her too. But she clearly taught you how to be the fantastic mom you are. I love you very much!
You are so right darlin she is here!Love you and I'm so proud of you! MUAY!!!

What a beautiful post, Kelly! Your mom will always be with you!
Just know that your mom was and is loved!!! Thank you for sharing such a sweet post. My heart just breaks for you all, but I know she up in heaven smiling down at you all <3 Love you!
I'll be praying for you this week. I love your perspective though – I need to remember it myself when I am sad about things.
This is so sweet! As mother's day approached I was thinking about you and everyone else who has lost their mom. A bittersweet day I'm sure. Will say a few extra prayers for you guys!
