Happy Birthday to my Guardian Angel

Dear, Mom

Remember how we used to write cute letters & notes to each other when I was younger? Well, here I am now, a lot older. 12 years older since the last time we saw each other. I love this picture of us. I am only about 5 or so here but I love the way you have your arms wrapped around me, being excited for me because I am excited about my candy PEZ dispenser. I love it. You were always there for me. I am not sure how time works in the spirit world but today on this Earth if you were still here, you'd be 50. I can't believe it. I also can't believe you were only 37 when Heavenly Father took you home. He needed you back more than He needed you here on Earth. I am not sure why but I know you do. I also know someday I will know all of these things. Happy Birthday Mom. I miss you everyday. Sure, I have learned to live and cope without you being here in person all these years but I do feel you every now and then in Spirit. I know you check on me from time to time. I feel you. There are many different scenarios I have felt your presence and I want to thank you for watching out for me when you have time. I will never forget you. I will never forget your incredible example that you set for me. I will never forget the love you have for me. Please don't forget my love for you. I can't wait to see you again someday when its my turn to return home. I can't wait for you to meet your sweet grandsons. I know you would absolutely be in love with them and your other grandchildren as well. I like to give my sweet babies kisses and think {and hope} to myself "I bet my mom got to kiss these same sweet cheeks before they entered this world." I love you mom. I miss you so incredibly much. Grateful we get another chance to be together. I thank my Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ for that. What an amazing blessing. Can't wait for your arms to be wrapped around me again.....

Love, Tatum
