July 16th: Happy Birthday Mama
If people ask I don't mind telling. Being able to speak about the death of my mother is truly hard but today is her day and she always liked attention. Lol At 22 years old I NEVER imagined I'd wake up one day and my mother would be gone. I took having her for granted and it's something I'll never forgive myself for. We had a great relationship but I just wish I had more time. As a busy college student I would've called more, I would've went home more, I would've said I love you more, I would've said don't ever leave me. I last seen and talked to my mom on Thanksgiving Day 2008, 7 days before she passed away. (I beat myself up for a while about those 7 days. I always called once a week but this week was finals). It's a day I'll never forget and parts of it I remember like it was yesterday. I wanted 1 picture with my mom and all my sisters (Yes, friends I loved taking pictures then too). Thanksgiving was at my sister Erica's
