Losing the links
As we age into adulthood the realities of life begin to become more clear.

Memorial in Yellow
It was almost a year before I would post anything after Dawn Passed, Mom Passed Just 6 months later. I was so lost. I had known them both my entire life. They were both my biggest fans and cheerleaders. They ALWAYS had my back! I know being who I am, they probably both had many sleepless nights on my account. I am grateful and so thankful that I was in a position to be able to care for mom during a time I can only imagine had to be horrific for her. But enough of that already, This is my memorial to them both.
