Dearest mother, it’s exactly 3 years today, that you left your four wonderful children. It’s been quite challenging since you left but we thank God for his mercies so far. Most times, we (myself and my siblings) yearn for your love, words of encouragement and love but your absence often remind us of the shocking reality.
Since you left mum, a lot of water has passed under the bridge, so many events has taken place, both good and not so good. During one of the good events, I cried when I remembered that you were not around to share in the joy. I know how much you prayed and wished for that day to come, but you were not around when the day finally came. As I sat down in the midst of several people from different countries taking the pledge of Allegiance to become the United States of America Citizen, I bursted out in tears when I remembered that you won’t be around to congratulate me on becoming an American citizen. It was a day of joy mixed with tears for me, because my mum could not share in my happy moment.
Mum, it’s been a roller coaster since you left but the GRACE of GOD is sufficient for your children. I wish I could go on and on about events that has happened since your demise mummy, but my heart is too heavy to pen down anything. I thank God for the life you lived and I thank God that you were a great mother who taught her kids to be selfless and also be a cheerful giver.
We love you mum but God LOVE you most.
Rest in peace my deity and Jewel of inestimable value. Love you Mamie.
