“I learned how to be a mom from you. You were a fantastic mom. I know not everyone can say that about their mothers. I was so lucky to have mama; you were awesome, loving, giving and kind. Now that I am an adult I understand how great you were. I learned to give to others and be generous by watching you and part of me died when you left me and my brothers. My heart broke into pieces the day you said goodbye, though I know that you’re in a much better place now. I love you so very much, mama. Your one and only daughter who you always called “Atcheli” ever since I was a little girl.”
I was lucky to have you mama!
