“Life is not orderly. No matter how we try to make it so, right in the middle of it lose a leg, fall in love, drop a jar of applesauce.” - Natalie Goldberg
I'm so sorry, flex. What a beautiful way to think about it with her tiptoeing into heaven. I love that, and I just love your spirit. Your mom must be so proud of the woman you have become.
Sending many thoughts and prayers to you and your family. While you know she is at peace and in heaven, it still hurts deeply to lose someone so loved. Hugs, hugs, hugs.
