Silvia was the most loving, giving, beautiful, godly woman. She will be missed very much. Till we see you again, we love you.
I do miss you alot , mama. I know, you know the truth about everything now, and its a big relief for me that you do. I told you i”d never lie to you about anything, and i never did. Well maybe about spending the night with my friend from school, amd really going to see my boyfriend, lol. But nothing as serious as those few issues we had. I forgive you for not believing in me, because of your mama. My Grama Amanda, she believed in me 110%. She told me it didnt matter if you believed me or not because she Did! She told me you would believe me one day, as the tears poured from my eyes into her hands, i just hated that all these living years , you just knew i was lying to you about everything. Mama they were the ones lying to you. Not me. But it doesnt matter now. Does it ? Its done, your done, and im right behind you. You were a good mom – a strict one- but a good one- thank you for trying to steer me in the right directions- but for following my own directions – i messed it all up. Now i have to live with the choices ive made- all alone. I have noone. I know i have the Lord but i feel hes tired of me complaining and asking for stuff. . Im sorry i didnt get to see you before you left, but i thought just like all the other times , you would come home. Only this time you didnt. Please forgive me for not coming. Joe wasnt going to come , but i told him he had to because i couldnt at that time, he said okay, and thats what you were waiting on , because shortly after that you went to Heaven. It wasnt but a few weeks later that you came to see me in a dream and you gave me a glimpse of what Heaven looks like, how it was going for you, and that all angels have work to do everyday, and rarely sleep. You were the happiest in my dream ,than ive seen you be, in my lifetime. I was happy for you. I dont understand why you or Grama or my daddy , never speak to me in the dreams. I can hear your voices talking to others in my dreams, but when i say something to yall- yall just look at me – and make the motion for me to come to you. We hug and i tell you i love you and i miss you and yall give me the best snug ever, i close my eyes and yall disappear, and i wake up. Sometimes happy ,other times sad. But im so glad i do have the dreams. Its been a while though. How about coming to visit soon please. You Grama , and my Daddy. Its just not the same without you all here. And it never will be.
Some may think its stupid for me to write these words on here to you, saying youll not see it or thats not how to write condolences- but i dont care. This is me- this is what i feel like is the best thing i could do, and i dont really care what people think anymore.. im getting old myself now and i hate it so much. I want to live forever , cause theres so much to this world that ill never get to see or experience, and its about to late for me to start now. Especially as a widow. So ill try to make the best, out of the days yet to come, and ill thank God for each day, no matter it good or bad, happy or sad. Thinking of you mom Happy Mothers Day in Heaven and to My mama Amanda too Happy Mothers Day Grama I LOVE YALL AND I MISS YALL MORE THAN YOULL EVER KNOW.
