Last night, as I was nursing my daughter to sleep for bedtime, she was misbehaving. She threw Ruff(her stuffed dog) on the floor and laughed while trying to push off me. Then she stabbed me in the eye with her fingernail and pulled my hair so hard it hurt. I threw Ruff across the room and then just started crying. I wasn’t in that much pain. My daughter went back to nursing like normal. Then it hit me, my Mom isn’t alive anymore and it was Mother’s Day. I put my hand over my face as I was crying, and my daughter took my hand and held it for several minutes to comfort me. It was the sweetest thing ever!

Thank you. I miss her so much. She was my best friend. Having my daughter is the best thing that has ever happened to me. Without her I would not be in a very good place mentally right now. She gives me purpose and a reason to live life to the fullest.

You’re right about that!
I’m so sorry to hear this love, that sounds heavy and I can’t even begin to imagine how hard that must feel! It warms my heart your daughter was there to hold your hand! And it’s okay to get frustrated you are human and I’m sure your mom would be over the moon and so proud of the amazing mother you have become !!! Send you so many hugs

Thank you, it has been the hardest thing I’ve ever gone through. She’s been gone almost 3 years now, but it feels like she was just here yesterday. Life is completely different without her. I felt so empty before my daughter arrived. If my daughter weren’t here, I’d still be living in that tiny camper on our land getting high every day just to pass the time. I had kind of given up on everything. My daughter has changed my life in the best way!!

Thank you for saying that. Losing her has actually made me stronger in some ways. I dont take things for granted anymore and I love life to the fullest. My mom and I were very close, and I think to myself sometimes “what would mom do”? I’ve lost a lot of the fear and shyness I used to have. I do believe that her soul lives on through my daughter. Long story short, but The Lord spoke to me and said yes, she is within your daughter. I see a lot of my mom in her. My daughter gives me a strength I never knew I had within me

That’s beautiful!!! My partner lost both his parents and he was in such a similar boat, our son has really made that change for him too and I love to see it. But that doesn’t take the pain away! You deserve the world and more and I’m glad you have a beautiful life now with a beautiful daughter it’s only going to get better better

Thanks sweetie! I’m sorry to hear he lost both his parents. It must be so hard to be without both parents like that. I’m glad your son is helping make a difference for him and helping him to be happier.
