My Mum



I know that I should have beautiful words that describe how much I love this wonderful lady that I miss SO much already.

I should be able to share with the world how my Mum gave me the best gifts she could; my life, an amazing childhood and the very best of herself.

I know I should be able to eloquently write of all the things I wish I had been able to tell her before she left us. 'I love you.', 'You did a great job.', 'THANK YOU!'.

I will never be grateful enough for what my Mum did for me or the knowledge that she taught me that I will see her again and that she is in a wonderful place with our loved ones who had gone before her.

How I wish I had realised before, that while studying books and websites about how to be a good mother, the best example had always been right in front of me.

But my words are not enough and my feelings are too raw.


So I will just make this statement, Heather Lynn Ives was the best wife, mother, friend and Grandma in the world.

Both you and Susie paid wonder tributes to your mum. She indeed was a sweet friend.
