My Mother has been enjoying heaven since 1981 but she gave more than her all as she was left a widow with 6 children when she was 45 years old, lived on a farm but she always had time for all of us and did all the farm chores and saw to it that all the field work was also done plus she taught all of us about God and made sure that we lived according to God’s commandments. Her faith and her help came from God and she lived that faith everyday until God called her to His Heavenly Home. Mom, I Love You and I miss you and thankful for all your love and training you gave me.
The one thing in this world that Shuntay desired most was her mother\’s love, now that she has it how will it affect her. Surrounded by a new family and old friends, she struggles to rehabilitate her life. Unknowingly, she has become a moving target b
My mother is already in heaven I know she is watching us always…she died when we are still young. She leaves memories which cannot be forgotten ,our lives, our good attitude that we inherited from her, everything we are good individual because of her teaching. I love you so much Nanay!!!!!!
I was born in 1930, in the depression period. My mom tried to make things good for us, as my dad could
not find work in those times… I admire her for making sure we had an education, went to church and
ate, though it wasn’t the typical meal, just a bowl of lettuce sometimes…she tried, man, she tried her
best and I applaud her for this. She even made us clothes and my dad made me a lamp out of a
cardboard from a paper towel roll. It was beautiful… It was a hard time during the depression, but we
made it thanks to GOD and our parents… Thanks MOM and DAD…Love you…
TO MY BEAUTIFUL MOTHER IN HEAVEN. I KNOW YOU ARE NOT HERE BUT IN HEAVEN WHERE ELSE COULD SOMEONE AS BEAUTIFUL IN HEART AND SOUL BE. I MISS YOU SO MUCH AND WISH YOU WERE HERE WITH ME . LAST MOTHER’S DAY YOUR GRANDSON JOBO DROVE ME TO OCEAN VIEW CEMETERY SO I COULD BE WITH YOU ON THAT SPECIAL DAY I BOUGHT YOU A BEAUTIFUL BUNCH OF ROSES AND A VASE TO PUT THEM IN.

I LOVE YOU AND MISS YOU SO MUCH WE ALL DO YOUR CHILDREN JOSIE. ANNA, JOSEPH, TOMMMY AND YOUR GRANDSON JOSEPH . YOU WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN ALWAYS IN OUR HEARTS FOREVER.

I cried throughout this whole reading and music. If only it were true for me as I was growing up to have a mother that loved me. My mother was cruel, abusive, heartless and hated me. And until the day she died I have no idea why. I received beatings with a cat of nine tails on a daily basis, with buckle belts, and worse. I made a vow that if ever I had any children in my life, I would love them with every ounce of my being. Well, I’ve been married and widowed twice…my first husband had two children from his first marriage and they never accepted me no matter how hard I tried. We lost a child, I had a miscarriage, and nine months to the day of the death of our beloved son, we adopted a child out of the hospital. My son now 21 years old, was my life. I gave him love, support and everything of kindness, compassion and so much more. We were inseparable. At the age of 18 he made a statement that I thought was in jest…”Now that I’m 18, I’m going to live my life the way I want and do what I want to do.” People heard him and were shocked because my love for him was unconditional. But true to his word from 18 up to now, he’s 21 yrs. old, and there is no love between us. My heart is breaking into a million pieces. I’ve tried so hard to keep open communication, to keep the love flowing, but all in vain. There is so much discontention between us, that today (the day before Mother’s Day) he said; “Well, are we having breakfast tomorrow?” I didn’t want to celebrate tomorrow, my heart isn’t in it…especially since he said, we will go to breakfast, maybe play a game, but the rest of my day I’m going out with friends. I won’t be with you for lunch, dinner or anything. No big deal.”
My second husband had three children from his first marriage and I wasn’t accepted by them either.
I always wanted a big family. And all I want in life is love, respect and my health. I would feel that I was the richest mother in the world if only I had that. But that will never happen. I’m 64 years old, and I’m dreading tomorrow…Mother’s Day! Sad isn’t it?
So, yes I cried no matter how beautiful the words and music are here, tears are streaming down my face.
For those Mother’s, grandmother’s, great grandmother’s that are/were lucky in having a loving family, cherish those times. Cherish the memories, and know and believe just how lucky you are. Never take anything for granted from any child that blesses you with love, hugs, kisses and truly means it.
