Love you infinity, Mom.

Dear Mom,

It’s impossible to believe it’s been four months. Four months without your laugh, your amazing hugs, your inspirational text messages, your encouragement, your compassion, and your all around wholehearted goodness. I find myself in utter disbelief that this could possibly be true but yet here I am, four months later, trying to make sense of it all.

I know how much you believed in me. You saw how much validation I received from writing and you understood, like I did, that there is power in words. I’m not sure if I ever thanked you for that…so thank you. I’m sorry that it took me so long to come back to this craft. I kind of lost this part of me this last decade of my life but I am here to take it back. You are my inspiration and while I am grieving the immense void that is now left without you physically here, I want to honor the incredible legacy you left behind with the one thing I still have, my words.

There is so much to say and I plan on saying as much as I can. This little corner of the internet is dedicated to you, Mom.

I love you infinity.

Love,

Your sweetheart.
