Goodbye Mom, You were my 1st Hero

I will never be able to fully understand your struggle - When I was young, you were so amazing.

**You were like a "rock star" to me - Beautiful, Fabulous & Flawless** 🤩

You always had the ability to handle life and all that came your way so very easily, I only realized later that you had your own struggles and it just **seemed** that way. You were a small town girl with little education looking for a better life. You were so brave to leave the safety and familiarity of home to venture out into the world towards a brighter future. I never knew how much you had to endure and sacrifice to give me a wonderful life that I certainly took for granted. 🥰 When I was young girl, you sheltered me and kept me safe from harm. I rarely felt scared and I always knew you would fight to the end to protect me. That sense of safety and assurance made me the woman I am today (It's truly amazing how stability can calm the mind and soul and shape our lives) ❤️ 🧡 💛 💚 💙 💜 As a young adult we had our occasional disagreements, but I never lost respect for you. We may not always have the same approach, but I deferred to your wisdom on many occasions (even if I did not always immediately admit it to you or myself).🤔

Now I see that maybe I don't know everything - my regret is that we can't have new conversations, debates or even disagreements. Your wisdom is now only in my mind. ❤️

**You are gone and that is a "period" not a "comma" it's the end.** 😥 I write this for both of us. Know that I think you were an AMAZING Mother and person. Thank You, thank you for giving me so very much. 🙏🏼 **You accomplished so much, loved and lived life** - **Rest in PEACE & LOVE - I will always love and respect you** ❤️
