A tough day

My mother passed away last Sunday, December 13th at 2:45 am. I was by her side when she died peacefully in her sleep. We spent the following days planning things for the funeral and going through things to give to grandchildren and getting her house ready to sell. I was surrounded by all of my children and my husband. There is much strength in being together. They all have been so loving and kind to me.

We came home last night and today as I am alone and doing the mundane things of cleaning and laundry I am finding it difficult to concentrate. There is such a sense of loss even though I would not wish her back and know she is well and happy and with my dad. I know it will be better in the weeks to come but until then.....
