My Angel Mother-n-Love

God took you home before I got to meet you. Ben tells me all the time we would have been two peas and a pod. I'm thankful for the beautiful picture that is painted of you, by everyone that knew you. I get to see a part of you daily through Ben. You would be so proud of the man he has become. It's crazy how we are a lot alike, and I'll do something and Ben will say, "You are just like my mom!" I love you and can't wait to meet you. P.S. I'll WWE my way to get the first hug!!
