This is a portion of a video that I created in Dec 07 for my grandparents. At the time we didn't know what 2008 was going to look like for them. They had just been put into a nursing home and I wanted to celebrate their life and to show my appreciation for them, after all I wouldn't be here without them. This is the portion that is my family, my mom (their daughter), my dad and me. I'm posting this because Thursday will be 8 years she's she passed away. And I think the song is expresses just how I feel. I love looking at pictures of my mom, I see myself. Vic says I look just like her. I'm even beginning to think I sound like her too. 9 years seems like such a long time ago, but I remember it like it was yesterday. This year October is even a little more difficult for me b/c my father passed away October 21 last year. I figured if I went ahead and wrote something about it now then maybe Thursday won't be as difficult. I just wish she were here to see Madison grow up and this new little one. Time heals, it's not as hard as it once was. But, I still miss her everyday!!
Not fair! You know I haven't been able to bring myself to watch the DVD since you made it. Now I will have to sit down and watch the whole thing. And cry.
