My Beautiful Mother

Today I'm thinking of my mother who passed on to heaven four years ago. This photo was taken when she was in her 40s, still young, vibrant, and so active in our lives. She loved flowers and so do I. She loved children and I do too. She taught me to be grateful––and I am. She had lovely blue eyes and a smile as warm as sunshine. I miss her but I know we'll be together again someday. Meanwhile, I want to keep her legacy alive within me by living each day to the fullest.
