Came here to say I love you and miss you so much Mom. This is the 3rd new year we moved to since you left and it just feels like we are moving further away from our last meeting, yet steps closer to being together again. A very odd feeling that I know you would understand. Happy new year Mom! Love Always, Lori xoxo
