My precious mom passed away in February of this year. God called her home after many years of struggling with the horrible and debilitating disease of Alzheimers. These words are so special and I knew that I wanted to make something for myself in memory of my mom. I also have a sweet friend that lost her teen daughter about 6 months ago. When Mother's Day was approaching, I wanted to give her and her family something that might help to ease the pain they would be experiencing on the first Mother's Day without her. I decided to make a tile using these words cut in vinyl. I finished it the night before Mother's Day. Early next morning I found a text from my friend wishing ME a Happy Mother's Day. I didn't get to give it to her that day, but we met for lunch several days later. We ate, drank lots of iced tea and talked for over 3 hours about our loss, and the wonderful memories that we have of our loved ones. I love this family and think about them every day.
