Life Goes On

I'm learning that death is all part of life.  After my last post on the death of one of my favorite horses,  I became consumed with planning the wedding reception for my youngest daughter.  A week later, I found myself helping to plan my dear mother's unexpected funeral.
This all took place during Thanksgiving weekend and Christmas.  It's now a New Year, and yes,

 "Life does go on."

Here's to you, my wonderful sweet Mother.   You continue to live in the hearts of your children, grandchildren, great grandchildren and so forth.  I will pick myself up knowing that because of you I am the person that I am, blessed with talents that you helped to nurture.  Thank you, and I will go on loving you...
