Put your arms around her, Lord
Don't leave her on her own
For today is Mammy's birthday
The first away from home.

Loving wishes coming your way on your 82nd birthday. Wherever you are dear Mammy, you're in our thoughts. Love and hugs, Sonia, Ian and all the tribe xxx

A lonely heartache, a silent tear,
A birthday wish that you were here.

That's my birthday wish.

57 years ago today you gave birth to me and this is the first time ever that we've not been able to speak to each other on my birthday but I know you're watching as I often feel your presence. Love always x

January 2010.

2009, the worst year of my life has gone, thank goodness. I think of you every day and would give anything to have you back in my life. Love and hugs, Sonia xxx

Memories are a gift to treasure,
Mine of you will last forever.

I remembered and thought about you at 17.25hrs today. Exactly 3 months to the day and time that you left this world. As much as it hurt and still does, I'm so glad I was with you. Miss you so much ,Mammy. Wish I could talk to you just one more time.xxx

12 weeks today since you left this world and I miss you more than ever. Will the pain ever go away? Love and hugs, Sonia xxx
A thousand words won’t bring you back, I know because I’ve tried,
Neither will a million tears, I know because I’ve cried.
They say memories are to treasure, to some that may be true.
I never wanted memories, I only wanted you.

My dear Mammy. I was with you to the end and now there is a void in my life. We had such a special bond, something only a 'Mother and Daughter' can share. We talked a lot about things and I will keep those words locked in my heart forever. Nobody can take away the those memories. Don't worry anymore just rest in peace. Loads of love and hugs from your only daughter, Sonia x

When I'm in need of comfort, I walk down memory lane and there I see you smiling and I talk to you again and as I wander slowly back I seem to hear you say 'don't grieve, don't cry my darling child, we'll meet again someday'.

Miss you so much.
