My Mum. Missing her today and every other day of the year. She passed away on 4/2/07. Mothers day and birthdays are difficult times. But I know she would not want me to be sad so I am always thinking happy thoughts of her.My dad was an awesome man too. He passed away two days before I turned 11. He was cremated on my 11th birthday. just a few short days before Christmas. Hard times for a kid who idolised her dad. He was always there to help someone - usually a stranger struggling with a pram on a train. He was so kind and always thinking of others. Missing him so much too. But happy in the knowledge mum and dad are together again.
