I wanted to write something for her today. Maybe something about what Iβve learned or felt this past year or what a year ago today felt like but nothing felt right. So I will just say this…
She was my Lorelai (and sometimes my Emily). She was stubborn and strong. She was spontaneous and funny. She had impeccable taste and family meant everything to her. Her life mission was that her children would love and support each other. She constantly gave us advice (whether we wanted it or not). She was one of my favorite people and I have missed her every single day this past year. See you in my dreams. I love you mom π

I believe that every Mom would want to leave the legacy that you have described. Mission accomplished Marybeth.

Ashley, Sometimes writing less is more. In this case & what you wrote, it definitely is. Since Gilmore girls is one of my most favorite shows ever, I got your reference. The mother/daughter bond on that show was like no other. I am so sorry you lost your mom so young. That part is the worst, but at least you know you had an amazing relationship. I am sure you know a lot of your friends that donβt have that connection so at least you have 30+ years of wonderful memories with her. And from your posts it looks like your son will have some awesome ones too! {{{Huge Hugs}}} to you as you go through another big hurdle. xoxoxo π Patti
