dearest soul sister,, i am so sorry for your loss of your mom. i know your pain as it happens to us all. but know that your mom is still with you. every time you see a butterfly, its your mom, here music, her perfume. a common saying you repeat unintentionally. their all your moms reminder she is with you. i look for my mom all the time cause i know she is enjoying watching my life and some things i learned from her such as dont wait. do what you want to do even if your spouse doesnt want to. he just might love it too.. and he did!!! you will miss her physical body to hug but wrap your arms around you and know that half of you is her!! so you are not only hugging yourself you are hugging her too.. many blessings of love and light to you. ingrid
