A letter to my sons:
I know you’re heartbroken, devastated & dismayed right now. I feel your pain & know what you’re going through. I wish I could kiss it away & make it all better. That’s a mother’s love… to only want the best for her children. You don’t understand, you want to go back to how it was before, but you can’t. You keep asking, “why?”. You were starting a new life, settling in & enjoying where you were. I’ve been there. I know how you feel; I’ve felt this same way too. It was only just 2 years ago when we lost our home to a fire, but it feels like yesterday. All of you came to our side, held us up with your love & support after we lost everything. But now, those all familiar feelings have started all over again, but this time they are for you. I can tell you, it will not always be like this. This too shall pass, it will get better. Look at what you have come thru & where you are today. You have suffered a great loss, something so many are experiencing as well. You’re not alone! God carried us thru & I know He will carry you too. September 13th was the beginning of a new life for us; the day your Dad & I married. We raised you boys with a love & determination, so you could make the most of everything in life. You CAN do all things through Christ who gives you strength! So be strong my sons, YOU are our legacy, remember you are never alone! I love you more than you will ever know… Mom💔
