Christmas without your mother...
Means you are now she.
You are the one who creates Christmas.
You are the one who honors the traditions
ensures that the joy is passed down
as she would have liked.
But that is hard when you are hurting,
when you are just a little girl,
deep down,
who misses her mama.
So, be kind to that little girl
but go forth
and do what your mother taught you to do...
LOVE.
Because one thing is for sure,
she taught you well.
