My all time favorite picture ♥️ This was exactly how she loved me. ♥️
So much has happened in the 5 years you have been gone... things I so wanted to talk with you about. Still I reach to text you and then remember...sometimes I tear up and sometimes I smile.
Mom would tell people that I basically raised myself- that I was independent from the time I could talk and that I didn't need anyone... oh how she was wrong... I needed her so much... I learned so much from her- yes I am educated but she was smart, and kind, and loving and helped everyone, included everyone and made everyone feel special. My patients loved her and tell me all the time how much she is missed...
So many things I'd love to sit and drink some coffee and tell her about...
Even though I was her boss -LOL- She would reign me in when I was being a little too extra or as she said - getting a little too big for my britches...
Put your chin up baby girl and show them what you are made of- that's when I would be doubting myself.
So many sayings...😊
The person in one's life that is their mothering soul- doesn't always have to be your actually mama - when they leave this world, leave you behind... honor them, keep their traditions or sayings or recipes alive. Honor them by doing good and trying hard even when you really don't feel like it. ♥️ Honor them.
I so miss my mama... I almost stopped practicing when she died. I was so mad a medicine and her doctor, mad at covid for keeping people away from their loved ones even if they didn't have it... It was traumatizing- and still is. I didn't quit because she wouldn't have wanted that for me and I really do love what I do.
Hug your people for one day they may be gone.
