I hear you MsMc and everyone else who has lost someone dear. My mom passed away in May last year. All these first days of everything are difficult. Birthdays, Holidays and especially Christmas.

But you know, your loved ones are always in your heart, safely tucked away for eternity. As are the memories, the moments that made you laugh and cry. Talk about those moments during these days, they will give you the boost and spirit you need. Let you know that they are never gone and wanting you to remember them by celebrating life, not mourn death.

Through that you will experience the light that they were and always will be.
