Happy Birthday Mommy!

It was Mommy's 81st birthday yesterday - October 6, 2013 and she is spending it now in heaven. My sisters and I miss her so....5 months and 6 days since she passed away. Not a day goes by that I do not think of her and remember her vividly..all the memories and moments. I miss her so! :( The house in Pasadena has turned so quiet and lonely now without Mom around.

But Mom is gone now and I am sure quite happy and at peace now, especially since she has Lolo and Nanay, Tito Boy and Kiboy all around her now.

Happy Birthday Mommy!!!! I love you and miss you....

She is Gone... a poem by David Hawkins

You can shed tears that she is gone,
Or you can smile because she has lived.
You can close your eyes and pray that she’ll come back,
Or you can open your eyes and see all she’s left.
Your heart can be empty because you can’t see her,
Or you can be full of the love you shared.
You can turn your back on tomorrow and live yesterday,
Or you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday.
You can remember her only that she is gone,
Or you can cherish her memory and let it live on.
You can cry and close your mind,
Be empty and turn your back.
Or you can do what she’d want:
Smile, open your eyes, love and go on.
