Mom,
Happy Mother’s Day.
I am so sorry that you are without your children today and everyday.
But today I will think of you as I do often. If you were with me today I
would spoil you. I would take you out for a pedicure, then off to Butchart
Gardens we would go. We would stroll through the gardens hand in hand and you
would teach me all about the beauty, we would order tea and sit and chat. We
would talk from the heart about nice things, happy things and things that needed
to be said. Then off we would go for a beautiful lunch at one of my favorite
vineyards, we would sit on their gorgeous patio while sipping chilled white wine
as the mist would cool us from the wooden pillars of the pergola. We would order
cheese, specialty breads and of course seafood and we would laugh and laugh and
enjoy each others company. Then we would come back to our place and we would
kick off our shoes and we would sit on the swing and let the breeze guide us. We
would listen to the birds sing , watch the turtles sunning themselves on the log
in the pond, we would follow the path of the ducks and the babies as they played
carefree in the water as the dragonflies fly overhead.
I love you mom and think of you often. Please don’t feel alone, because we
are always in your heart.
Just remember that Henry and I are the only two people who have ever heard
your heart beat from inside your body.
Much love mama,
