I see it in the way you love your nephews and are MOST DEF the coolest aunt they'll have. (Sorry Ginger's sisters! But she is! :)) And this letter and its eloquence is beautiful. It's a beautiful way to honor her on this day. Lots of love and hugs your way. :)Jess (Gone with the Words)https://www.blogger.com/profile/03104711402867446890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9180446384835146464.post-63742665528505974192013-09-20T07:11:39.727-05:002013-09-20T07:11:39.727-05:00That is a beautiful letter written by a beautiful ...That is a beautiful letter written by a beautiful person.

Your mom would be SOOOO proud of the woman you have become. I would give anything to have my mom back but I will say I feel blessed, through our mutual loss, that we could have bonded over something that has impacted our lives in ways most things can't. Sharing our losses with each other has encouraged me and made me feel closer to you. I KNOW you always will understand. <br /><br />You know where to find me if you are feeling down today <3Jamiehttp://www.perpetualpageturner.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9180446384835146464.post-60351874838903619422013-09-20T06:55:57.603-05:002013-09-20T06:55:57.603-05:00Ginger, thank you so much for sharing this.

I can't even begin to imagine how difficult it must have been to lose your mother at such a relatively young age or continue to cope and to <i>live</i> with as much grade and courage as you have. Your mother sounds like a strong, admirable woman, and I'm sure she's looking down on you and is proud of the daughter she raised. <br /><br />In writing this post, you've given us a gift. To remember to cherish those in our lives. To slow down, stop, and simply be thankful for even the most infinitesimal of moments together. I know that I'll be giving my parents a kiss on the cheek today and thanking them for all they've done, but please know that <b>you</b> have inspired that. You're an inspiration, both to those who have already been through, or have yet to experience, what you were forced to face as a young girl. Thank you for being you. <br /><br />My thoughts will be with both you and your mother today *Hugs* <3Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03122190709903711075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9180446384835146464.post-59016483959396544472013-09-20T04:42:25.789-05:002013-09-20T04:42:25.789-05:00I just lost a friend aged 22, it is hard for me bu...I just lost a friend aged 22, it is hard for me but your article somehow made me feel better.<br />Thank you, this is a very beautiful letter.
