Hi.
I also lost a child. My son died10 years ago. However, I have two wonderful, special children (my daughter and my sons twin brother) to hug cuddle and love. This morning I looked down at my feet and realised I am HERE NOW!!! So, NOW is the important thing to experience!!
Love to all.

Mothers’ Day
Today would have been my mother’s 88th birthday[she died in1993]
Today I will not see any of my children or stepchildren.
Yesterday my daughter visited with a present and card[and yougest gc]today they will see s-i-l’s mum as I had my treat/outing last weekend for my birthday.
Today I give thanks for all the ‘mothering’ in my life.I have been a daughter,a mother and a grandmother and these relationships have defined me by allowing me to experience a quality of love unlike any other.Yes I have a card on my mantelpiece and a book by my bed but In my heart I have my grandma,my mother,my daughter and my grandchildren.today is not about commercialism,flowers or chocolates it is about acknowledging motherhood with all its joys and heartaches and thanking whatever you believe in for that.
My sorrow is for all who have lost a child or a mother-may their memories bring them joy as well as tears.Happy Mothers’ day ladies.

What a lovely post Val.xxx
I think that’s beautiful and well said. My own daughter lost a child and to see the pain and anquish she went through was awful. What’s in your heart is far more important .
