Happy Mother's Day to all my Mommy friends!
Mother's Day was always a special day for my sister and I to celebrate our day and Mom's day with Mom. This year was different; our first Mother's Day without her. Dad, Amy and her kids, the boys and my family went to visit Mom's grave and deliver our flowers to her. I missed seeing Mom's reaction to her flowers we gave or the presents that the boys, Amy and I came up with. She always glowed on Mother's Day. It was her day to be spoiled by her 6 kids. After I had my kids I got to share my day, too, with her!!! This Mother's Day felt empty without her. I still got to celebrate my day of course with my family but also with Amy, the boys and Dad. It was nice to share our memories of Mom. I missed her smile, hugs, voice and the good conversations we all had with her. I know Mom had a wonderful Mother's Day in heaven and was watching down at us. The best gift is knowing I have my angel Mother looking down at me.
Raya added an extra special flower for Grandma.

My sister Amy and I on Mother' s Day 2010. I love you Amy. I have no pictures of my kids and I. They didn't want pictures with their Mommy! I did get extra hugs and kisses from them today!
