Heavenly Birthday

Tomorrow marks your 69th birthday. It's hard to believe that time has passed by so quickly. The vibrant woman I once looked up to become worn over night and silently disappeared when I wasn't looking. Life is so unfair sometimes. Even though I am grateful for the time I've had with you, I am also sad that that I can't hear your voice, see your face, or even hug you one more time. I can only pray that you're out there some where watching over me and still guiding me, like you always have.

You've always been my biggest fan and always encouraged me to follow my dreams. Regardless of the struggles I've had to face. Without you hear it feels overwhelming to step forward and face the day alone. You've taught me so many things and I try hard everyday not to let you down. I can never repay you for everything that you've done for me, but I will try my best to if there is a next life.

Even though my childhood wasn't easy, even though we have had our ups and downs, even though there were many obstacles to overcome and endure, I still pray that I can be your daughter again one day. We've done the best we could with what we had. I have no regrets.

Happy Heavenly Birthday, Mom! I love and miss you more everyday. Until we meet again.
