She would want you to be happy, too, and for you to join her there when it's your time. It will seem like an instant to her since she saw you. It's okay to miss her, but try not to be sad that she's with Jesus. She isn't.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5535095.post-89379606887786512152010-02-16T01:03:29.983-08:002010-02-16T01:03:29.983-08:00I'm so sorry about your loss, and the sadnes o...I'm so sorry about your loss, and the sadnes of your family. Unfortunately I don't have much comforting words, but I can see that you've got lots of support from around the net. I wish you lots of strength! * hugs *<br /><br />And don't be sorry about not celebrating Valentines day. To me it seems as Todd and you celebrate your love every day. That should be more important than just squeeze it all in on one day.Erikahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06778812829110745755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5535095.post-38989458914647402182010-02-15T17:28:44.470-08:002010-02-15T17:28:44.470-08:00I cried reading this... it is so touching and I ca...I cried reading this... it is so touching and I can feel your love for her through this post. I hope in time you will be able to celebrate your love for her on this day and find some happiness again. Time heals all wounds, it is just a very painful journey getting there. For now, celebrate love for your husband and family any and every day and just don't worry about Valentine's Day. You have to do what feels right for you. Sending you virtual hugs across the net.

Nothing I can say can ease the pain your are feeling. But, from your description of your mother, she was an amazing lady. I'm with Tracey....can't wait to meet her.<br />One thing I've wanted to try is to make a brainstorm list of all the things that come to mind about my mother. Maybe journaling would help with grieving today.<br />Much love to you...The Lord Familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02901024620912986216noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5535095.post-43302362390559839402010-02-15T13:28:37.141-08:002010-02-15T13:28:37.141-08:00Big hugs to you Christine.

Your post is a wonderful reminder of the selfless side of motherhood, as well as the selfless side of walking with Christ. Your mom incorporated both into ministering to young people..mothering them while pointing them to the cross. <br /><br />One of your mom's favorite things was you. (and later, Todd) And I know that it's hard to like Valentine's day, but the day is a beautiful reminder of a special lady that was characterized by LOVE. And not just a surface love, a SELFLESS LOVE that touched so many..and molded her daughter into a light for Christ.<br /><br />Can't wait to meet her one day.<br /><br />Praying for you.Traceyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07387284611336482267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5535095.post-57065223232643046572010-02-15T04:16:49.233-08:002010-02-15T04:16:49.233-08:00Your Mom was obviously a special lady that touched...Your Mom was obviously a special lady that touched so many lives. This is one of those times where it is hard to relay what we know in our minds (that she is in joy now with God) to our hearts (where you feel the whole that she left). I've been learning to focus more on who God is: our Lord, the King, creator, protector, provider, healer, holy, soverign, righteous, love. I am praying for you right now that you feel God's arms around you filled with his comforting love.latzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02465338134833548144noreply@blogger.com
