i am thankful: part four

it has been two years since i lost my mom. exactly. i am so thankful for the 27 years that i got with her. it's not really enough, but it is better than the 0 that beckett gets. i wish he could have met her. she would have been a really good oma, for sure. i miss her... a lot. it is hard to become a mom without your mom to see it. i think she would think that i'm doing a pretty good job, though. i am thankful for the family i have, the family i married into, and the friends that are like family too. if you are reading this, i am thankful for you! as i head into the holiday season... and pull out the christmas decorations, i am reminded of my childhood and my mom and happy memories and i feel her presence. i feel blessed and thankful to create the same for my baby. so, goodbye fall... goodbye thanksgiving, but i will continue to be thankful as we say hello to winter and christmas and a new year!

  1. I'm so sorry for your loss, Cortney. It must be so hard for you and your sister, but she sure did an amazing job raising you two.
