It's amazing how 3 years can feel like such a lifetime to be without Mom...and yet, if I look down the hall, it feels like only a moment ago she was walking down it and smiling at me.

I know that in the days, weeks, months and years that have past that we've learned to keep going...and keep going and smile...and keep going and live life and laugh...and I know that I've learned to not feel guilty about living life, laughing and being happy again...and that learning to live a life without mom has become exactly that...living life without mom...

But boy there are days like today, or moments that just grab you...when you know, that there's still a void and this hole in your heart that really only one person can fill...and boy do I miss her.

I love you, mom....
and miss you so much more than words could ever say.
