My mother.
As many of you know late last month I posted on Austenland facebook page / instagram ( austenlandgirl) the lose of my grandmother , mother of my mother . Her loss was so sudden , I am still in shock and denial Even thought I know she is at a a better place and pain free . Its hard been hard grieve not having my mother here . She left to Mexico the day my grand mama past away and made it just in time for her service burial . I have kept myself busy carrying for my sibling's but their is a gap in my heart , And a bit more without my mother by my side. She is their till the 28th of this month!( The longest period of time we have ever been apart )
So being that said My mother could really use this " Bee A Queen" I know she could use a distraction from everything that has happen, especially since this will be a hard holiday season. Not only the Holidays but her 52nd birthday is on December 26th (And would have been my Grand mama 82nd a few days after ) It would be nice for her to be pamper to lift her spirits up a bit. She is a inspiration to me not just because she is my mother , She is my best friend , my counselor , my guide , the person whom I am honor to be her daughter. She is a stay at home mother but her job is no piece of cake I been trying to do it while she is gone right now ( I am going crazy !!!!! honestly I am pooped by noon )I found out that her home cooking is no piece of cake and when she comes back I will take for granted every meal she makes ! I guess you can tell what area I am not good at ( cooking YIKES!!) Never a day in my life have I gone hungry , cover , or gone without motherly love . If it wasn't for her sewing lessons at early age I probably wouldn't have a shop right now or interested in being crafty , So alot of my items have been inspired by my mother . Her faith has been passed on just like her mother passed her faith to her. I will never be half as great as she is but their are things of her that I am and I am blessed that God gave me a woman like that to be my mother.
Well I could go on how amazing my mother is but this isn't a book , the memories I have had with her have been the best and I am just crying typing this thinking of all the things we have been through .Well besides making a post to enter this giveaway it mention to get creative and do a poem , collage , fun video . And I say well ill try all I can ( minus the video I am to shy for the still and I wouldn't go 10 sec without crying talking how great she is )
So here is a poem using my mothers name .Since I haven't done poetry since my school days. I left this for my youngest brother Johan ( age 10) to do . He said it was a poem of what our mom is made of .
MARINA
Made of love to give love
Added faith for the hard times
Rays of sunshine to brighten sad days
Inherited grandmother ways
Natural beauty
Add all these and Marina is made
