Hey mom, I really miss you but I know you are in a better place now. I pray for you every night and every morning. You probably don’t think so, but my dad and Sherrie miss you too. But like one of our favorite movies said “Life’s like a box of chocolates, you never know what your going to get.” Well, I’m still waiting on that part of life. I love you mom.
