Mum

Summary:

On the 9th of January, I unexpectedly lost my beautiful Mum. She was my everything, and I'm still struggling to come to terms with the knowledge I will never again feel her loving arms wrapped around me. It is impossible for me to put into words how much she meant to me, and what a huge influence she had on my life, but I did write these words as a tribute, and they were read out at her funeral.

I love you, Mum, you are forever in my heart.

Notes:

A big thank you to xopollyxo307 for your kind words.

Thank you for reading me books when I was too small to read the words.

Thank you for staying with me in school when I wanted to run home and be by your side.

Thank you for kissing away my tears.

Thank you wrapping me in your loving arms and holding me tight.

Thank you for gently guiding me through life’s many hurdles.
