Posted on May 7, 2009 By Mommy's Angel in Heaven

It’s coming…

I have really tried not to think about it. Yet it’s coming. I don’t want it to come. Yet friends keep reminding me. I wish it’d just go away. Yet I receive a letter in the mail to say I’m being thought about during it.
MOTHER’S DAY!!
Mother’s Day is coming whether I want it to or not. It’s supposed to be a time of celebration for being a mother. Our Mothers, Grandmothers, Great-Grandmothers, and sometimes even Great-Great-Grandmothers are all remembered this day and celebrated as the ones we love.

Then there are those that are the mothers, grandmothers, great-grandmothers, and great-great-grandmothers where it’s our special day. It’s the day created because we have the privilege of being mothers.

Then there are those mothers like myself that all this day will bring is utter sadness. It will not be a day of joy and celebration because my daughter was ripped from me. I’m no longer a mother here on this earth. Yes, I’m a mother of a child but that child is not here any more. She’s up in heaven. Mari is gone.

All I get to do this day is remember that I no longer have my precious baby girl here with me. She’s gone and yet I still have the bittersweet memories of her being here just last year to now having her gone for this year. I wish it would just go away.

I know that Mother’s Day is a special day for mothers, but I just wish it wouldn’t come this year. I probably wish it would permanently go away but no matter how much wishing I do I know it’ll continue to come every year anyway.

I miss you, MarMar. I love you, Baby Girl.

 

Mother's Day is Here

May 10, 2009 Mommy's Angel in Heaven 3
It's officially Mother’s Day. A day of celebrating our mother’s or to be celebrated by our children. Today should be a day of utter happiness and excitement. To be remembered for just being the women who are loved by those around us. If Mari was here today she wouldn't even…
 

Shopping...

May 3, 2009 Mommy's Angel in Heaven 0
Keith and I were sitting here discussing how there's hardly any food in the house. I don’t do the grocery shopping like I used to any more. It’s typically just me at home in the house most of the time. Keith is at work ridiculously long hours Monday through Friday,…

    Sweetie you just rip my heart out….I read what you right and your pain is so raw. I wish I could just take it away from you and give you a moment of peace. I prayed for you last night and I cried while I prayed…but I know in my heart that God has something for you…He always will open the window before He closes the door. You just have to be brave and look for the window. I know what Father's Day is like for me…I miss my Dad TERRIBLY but that can't come close to your pain….I take comfort in knowing that he isn't suffering anymore and it's also been almost 4 years that he is gone. Your pain is still new and I remember that….it never goes away, but it does get easier…time truly does heal your pains…it makes it easier to go shopping and not "see" the things so blaringly and it makes it easier to get thru the Holidays and the Birthdays and the Anniversaries…it never goes away I don't think…but it does get easier. I am glad that Kevin is there for you….you're lucky ther

    Thank you. I am truly blessed the Keith is my everything. He has been there for me and he will continue to be there for me I know until one of us leave for heaven (which hopefully isnot for many years). It is meeting people like you that help to get me through. I just need good friends and family. I know I will get through it just seems like its almost impossible now.

    Just remember to take it "One Day At A Time" take it slow and don't think about tomorrow. Get thru the day you are in…it helps.

    This is my 1st Mothers Day where I can not b there for mum as she is so far away. My mother went through what u r going through, it is just not mothers day it is all the special days. The 1st is the hardest one 2 bear. Nana said mum would stay inside all day Mothers day and look at the photos except when she went out to the grave. Yes u can b told another will heal the pain, mum has had 3 more live children and she grives for her lost one. You r not alone lot of people r thinking of thoses that can not celebrate properly. I am sorry The right words r not coming 4 this.
