Mam-Maw

Grandma

© Augustine Perez

Thank you for the gift of love,

now you're sharing it up above.

You had many things to say.

All in a caring way.

You always saw good in everyone,

No matter what they've done.

You were always the one we could all lean on.

Even though it must have felt like a ton.

You were always the strength of the family.

Now we must let you rest calmly.

As we say goodbye,

as tears roll down our eyes.

I know your place in heaven has a good view.

Because you're telling God,

I need to keep an eye on a few.

I know you will always be in our hearts and mind.

So Grandma,

I must go, but I'll never forget you're one of a kind.

Happy Birthday Mam-Maw

This picture was taken at Mam-Maw's surprise 84th birthday party..what a great day it was and boy was she surprised...this was her first birthday party.

Today would have been Mam-Maw's 86th birthday it is hard to believe how fast this year has gone by. Last year we still had her with us and 20 days later we lost her. This will be another hard day for our family to go through. I know I will be thinking of her all day today.. I wish she was with us so I could give her a big hug and kiss and tell her how much I love her. My only hope is she is in heaven playing dominoes (boy could she play them!) and drinking a beer.

I love you Mam-Maw and miss you so much.. Happy Birthday..

Sweet Christmas reminder of Mam-Maw

I really miss my Mam-Maw and I think of her everyday and just wish I could talk to her and tell her everything that is going on in my life. It is hard to believe that next month she will have been gone a year. Mom was shopping the other day and found this.. it is hard not to cry when I see this but what a sweet thing to put on my tree and remind me that she is still with me always in my heart and in my mind.





I love you Mam-Maw and miss you so much....
