This Christmas is the same as any other yet so different. The reason has not yet been determined. A chance to spend time with loved ones and see friends, yet something is different. I can’t put my finger on it. The memories created with my most cherished loved one awaits everyday. So I decided to take this moment to let her know she was on my mind…
Dear Mom,
I think of you almost everyday as we grow closer to your anniversary. Your smile, your laugh, your voice I hear. There were so many times I thought I would forget, but the memories we created are more vivid than ever. I laugh from time to time at some of your character and habits that have become apart of my own.
So many changes have taken place since we last saw each other. I’m natural now and I know you would like that and I have even learned more about hair care. I know since you wanted to be a Cosmetologist that taking care of our hair and skin was important to you. Don’t get too excited though, I am not trying to go as far as to make it my career. I am just making sure I take care of my own.
I have my MBA and you won’t believe this, but I am a Veteran as well. I also kept my promise to you as much as could be expected. I really wish you could visit so I could cook for you and take you shopping. Of course I would shower you with hugs and kisses too.
Hope you aren’t disappointed, but you don’t have any grandchildren, well at least not from me. Eric and Tiffani are all grown up and adorable. I’m sorry you didn’t get a chance to meet Morgan. She is beautiful and the splitting image of sis! They are all intelligent and quite slim. Just like you I am still slim as well.
Well I won’t keep you long, I just wanted to let you know that even though it is your 24th Homegoing anniversary, you are present in my heart. I love you, I miss you, and I look forward to seeing you again. Tell Grandmother I said I miss her as well. It’s midnight now. Happy Anniversary and Merry Christmas!
