Dear Momma,
Happy Mother’s Day! This is the third year you’ve been absent. I miss you very much, but I see you almost every day. It’s been raining often, so everything is green and blooming. I see you in the flowers, and I see you in the trees. I see you in the stars at night, and I hear you in everything musical. When an oriole lands on the bird feeder, I hope it’s you. I see and hear you in all of the beautiful things in my life. I love you more than I could ever put into words…always and forever.
