Looking forward to Wednesday

This week is going to be a tough week. Tuesday marks the 11th anniversary of my mom’s death. Each year I dread this day. Each year on this day, I revert into my own little world and shut everyone else out. I can’t help it, it’s my way of coping.

But never fear, come Wednesday I will be fine.

To this day, I still miss my mom dearly. There isn’t a day that goes by that I don’t think about her. My kids talk about her like they knew her. My dad still misses her as much today as he did in the first couple of years. It’s sad, yet sweet at the same time.

I can’t believe it’s been eleven years.

  2. I'm so sorry for your loss. These anniversaries are difficult for sure. I just wrote about my brothers 10 year death anniversary. I hope you make it through the day and are able to cope and remember your Mom for all the wonderful she was.

  4. Oh, I get what you're saying. For years after my dad passed, I'd get almost crabby right around the anniversary of his death. My sister would, too. But it wasn't until many years later that we realized we would both go thru that. And there were years I wasn't aware of the date. But my subconscious knew!!!

  5. Hugs to you! It's only been 7 months for me and it still hurts every single days. My only hope is that my daughters don't forget my mom. She was the BEST grandma ever!!! HUGS!!!!
