A Toast to Mom on her Birthday

It has been so many years since you left this world, but I do not weep because now, as in life, I know you have never left my side. As the years have passed, my love for you has never dimmed; instead, it continues to grow brighter each day. You were special indeed, a mother any son would be lucky to have been blessed to have, and I am who I am today because of the sacrifices you made for me yesterday, and for that, I am eternally grateful. Today on your birthday, I raise a toast to you, Mom, the lady who will always have a special place in my heart.

My Dad he still protects me

As Father’s Day draws to a close I look back on this picture. I am too young to have any memories of this moment but as I look upon it I feel the love that my father always had for me as he holds me in his arms. Protecting me from danger as he would do until the day he left this earth. Now years after his going home to be with the Lord I can still feel myself being protected by him as if I was still being carried in his arms. I still feel his love and while I miss him every day I have no doubt that whenever the need arises in my life he is there for me spiritually.

Over the years, I have said how much they mean to me and how much I love them, so I won’t rehash that narrative. Suffice to say; there are moments when even In a room full of family and friends, I feel alone but then out of nowhere, I feel something that tells me I’m never alone; they continue to walk with me to look out over me. Should I expect any difference? Not really, after all, they are my parents and great parents they were
