She was always with us at everything we were involved in. She had her car accident when I got involved in dogs and showing so she couldn't go with me like she did when I was riding horses and daughter cheering and she always got frustrated when she couldn't travel with me but she always wanted me to keep her posted on our wins and how the yorklets were doing in the ring. My mom was a strong voice and one of the most blunt and honest woman I ever knew. She never let anyone tell her she couldn't do anything and she made sure she raised me the same way! She never cared whether or not she was liked but had many friends because she always stood her ground and behind her convictions and never faultered in her love for Jesus and she was just so outspoken and didnt' care if she were politicially correct LOL...she was honest in her word and let ya know if you were wrong LOL...again, I'm just so honored to be the type of person she wanted me to be and that was just like her! I guess that is why I'm so outspoken and have the passion I have because she was just that so passionate!! She will greatly be missed! |
What a beautiful tribute to you mother. I'm so sorry for you loss, but you were so lucky to have a shinning example set before you. In your case the apple didn't fall very far from the tree.
