In lieu of cards, I allowed some of my readers the opportunity to make tributes to their Mom. Here are there words of love, encouragement, and adoration.
From Amanda for Her Mom
I love you more than I love myself. I’m working on that. You always taught me to make sure I was secure. I want to be the mom that you are but in my own way. You paved the way for me to know what real love is. I am honored by your presence. Mom, I love the way you stand behind me as a force but you allow me my own strings to reign. I love how you always know the right words whether its a praise, push or small voice that says that’s not it.
You have never told me NO. Mom, you empowered me to make good decisions. You never allowed me to not have a say in what happened in my life. I feel like I can do anything. I love you mom I wish the world had the same type of love I have in you. Love Amanda.
Love Words from Carrie to Her Mom
I love you because you are love. I have never had to think I was alone in the world. You were always a light and a guide. As you aren’t here to share in my dreams I know you are watching over me. I love you mom and I pray to be half the mom you were to me. Love always Carrie Ann.
Michelle Lynn Honors her Mom
Mom, there aren’t enough words to express how much you have been to me. I love the fact that you are just so calm where if I was in the same situation I don’t handle things as graciously as you do. I’m working on that. I love the fact that you never raised your voice. So many are yelled and scared into submission you just simply made a statement and we knew better. I love how patience with me you have been over the years. I was a mess especially in my 20’s and you did NOT disown me or belittle me. You gave me my space and let me know if I needed you, you would be there. Thanks is such a small task for all that you have done. I love you. Michelle Lynn
I wish you were here. Mom, I love you. I need you. God needed you more. I pray that I am able to be half the mom you were to me. There is not a moment where I don’t cherish every last moment up until your dying day. I honor you now as I have honored you when you were here. Unlike many, I don’t have no regrets of words not said. I meant every I love you I said. Mom, please be honored in my life. I love you… Anonymous
