Missing Mamma

Poem: Missing Mamma by Corky Ferguson
The sun came up this morning;

It wasn't very bright.

My dark mood casts a shadow;

It's hard to see the light.

We all have just one mother

And, now that her life on earth is done,

The emptiness and loss I feel

Make it hard to see the sun.

Tomorrow is a brand new day;

May the pain and sadness lighten.

I will remember all her love,

And then the sky will brighten.

Gone is not forgotten;

Her love reminds behind;

She's traveled in a new direction -

Love knows no space or time.

I will always love her.

She will care for me from above.

She will send me starlight and rainbows

To remind me of her love.

Further journaling can be found at my SBG gallery only.

Hey, check out the Mr. and the Missus! I had Kaylie take a photo of dh and me and she cut off half my head and half of dh's head...:) She gets an A for effort.

I like the photo in the middle. Kaylie is such a sweet girl, I love her to pieces. Anyway, she is a huggy/kissy kind of girl, so she did what comes natural to her...gave me big, wet kisses. Yuck!


Here are my delightful children. This is as close to a smile as Liam gets these days.

Motherhood - 2nd page
After 20 years of struggles, Kaylie came into our lives bringing with her renewed faith and hope. A year and a half later Liam came along and my journey into motherhood began. They are my one and only priority., Life may bring me lots of ups and downs, but as long as my husband and children are safe, all is well with the world. Photos: 4/6/2008, journaling: 4/28/08
