I lost my mom very recently and for the past few days I’ve have been doing things that my mom love to do, I have made pepper sauce (literally one of her favorites she always gave it away to everyone.),
salsa, and pepper jelly, I have wrote down things I love about my mom and things I’ve hated about the situation, I have cried about my mom in the middle of chopping hot peppers unable to wipe away my tears, I have went in my moms closets and had chills come over my body, I have broke down in Belk trying to find the perfect thing for my mom to wear, I have tried to put down all the perfect things to say about my mom but that’s hard to do, because my mom was more than just my mom she was a mother to everyone who ever needed her, she was a prayer warrior over a stubbed toe. No ache or pain or worry was too small, she walked up to people in the grocery store even if she didn’t know them if she saw pain, worry or just had it in her heart she prayed or spoke words of wisdom to them, I have prayed lately to be more like my mom, she fed ever single person she could and if you missed out on her cooking and baking you really missed out, she made sure every holiday every child and grandchild had their favorite dessert or food, every Sunday she made sure she had me my greens or fried okra, my mom was more than just amazing friend and cook, she was a hardworker and she instilled that in my family, my mom gave the best hugs that could melt away all the worry and pain you had and the I love you precious always made it a little more sweeter, she had a radar that could detect it too! Till I was older I didn’t realize so many people didn’t have what my family has, a family that prays, eats and enjoys each other, a tight knit family always just a phone call away. I don’t regret much but even though I talked and was around my mom all the time, it’s still never enough! Hug your mom a little tighter, talk a little longer, spoil her with your presence, take the dang picture and record every moment of life one day it’s all you will have left!
For my mom Thank you Angels for being here and I love you precious!
