I have the small diary which my mother
bought shortly before she passed away. The only entries in it are the
24th of December, my sister Carole´s birthday, and the
13th of January, my own. As these are two dates which
no mother could possibly forget or need to be reminded of, I think this
says a lot about her and what was important to her. Since she was, and always will be, important to me too I feel it fitting
that on my birthday I should pay tribute to her with this page in her
memory. It´s also appropriate and no coincidence that I should have
used one of my favourite kits, Heart Of Gold.
What a beautiful page and a moving tribute to your mother. She was very blessed to have you as her daughter. Hope you're having a terrific birthday!
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry for your loss. I know when I lost my Mom almost 13 years ago, I spent time doing pages of her for Matthew's scrapbooks and felt close to her while I worked on them. It gave me comfort, and I hope it did the same for you as you worked on this beautiful tribute page of your Mom. I am sure she is smiling down on you from heaven. I hope you are having a lovely birthday.
ReplyDeleteI too am so sorry for your loss. It is so hard to lose one's mother. I'm also sorry to have missed your birthday. Here's hoping this will be a better year than the last.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing this beautiful memory of your Mum.
I am sorry for your loss...lovely tribute using one of my favorites kits of yours. What a blessing to have the memory of your mother's diary entries to recall each year as you celebrate your birthday. I am sorry for missing your birthday...it's normally so easy to remember as my father's birthday is January 18th and serves as a reminder that my dear friend's birthday is a few days earlier. This year my focus was on another January birthday...my grandson Jase Logan was born January 10th and I was in Dallas taking care of Brody while mom was in the hospital for total bed rest and observation until Jase was born. I now have a family birthday a few days before yours...love that you are tucked right there between Jase and my Dad's birthdays! Hope you had wonderful and blessed day.
