For my dad's birthday we still celebrate with cake and his favorite foods.

You have been through so much. ((hugs)) there is nothing harder.

It's not always possible, but it does help me on days like this to have a little something around my mom liked. My mom would be 88 this Monday. She loved lilies of the valley, and I have a stand of them growing in the back yard and usually put a vase of them out on her bday (her little vase). She also liked lilacs, and there are a few bushes in the backyard too, just because they remind me of her. Her favorite cake was white coconut, and I like to make one now and again, just to enjoy for her. After a while, it became something that feels good, to visit the cemetery on a sunny day. It all takes time, and it is so soon for you. ((hugs)) you are in my thoughts.

thank you. I often find comfort in wearing her most lovely jewelry every day. Because...it's her.

Wearing her jewelry is a great way to honor her memory. My mom would have been 71 today; we donate her age to her favorite charity every year.
