Thirteen Years and Eleven Months Ago

Two days from today will be the day I honor Mom.
Why do I honor her when she is gone?
Because she was my best friend and incessantly loved me.
There was nothing I could ever do to ruin her love for me.
Though I was a handful at times while maturing and afterward.
I will admit my failures for they were the mistakes I had to experience to become better.
Mom was always there to pick up the pieces of a broken heart that I had some years ago.
You see, about Mom, at 11:35 A. M. on the 23rd of January, 2002 Mom was called by God.
He required her soul at that time without warning of it impending happened.
Jesus did the right thing of course for He never makes a mistake.
Thirteen years and eleven months ago two days from now will be the day that will be given to honor Mom as I have said and also to have my own sorrow for mourning the loss of Mom.
Bless you, Mom, for all you did and are doing to pray for me.
I do need your prayers especially during this time.
Thank you for being the way you were as I do understand today why.
