I Thought of You Today

by gramalot8

 

“I thought of you a lot today, as I strolled down our memory lane.  My thoughts of you were filled with love and laughs and, yes, a lot of pain.  
 
Pain that you had to leave us so soon, pain of the heartaches you often endured, pain of the earthly things you will miss, pain of not physically holding you near.  
 
But, with these regrets also comes hope... Hope of the joy eternity brings... Hope of the wondrous love we will share,  Hope of  eternal blessings for all . And hope of the spirit life awaiting us there.
 
So, run through the clouds, dear Angel of mine, dance and sing among shining stars, learn, and listen and pray for us, knowing we'll join you in just a short while.
 
 I thought of you a lot today... and my smile was blended with tears,... Tears of joy, tears of sorrow, and tears overflowing with love from me."

I was thinking of Amber today. We sure do miss her smiles, her teasing, her pouting (LOL ) All her hugs, her silliness and quirks...and just everything about her... missing her a lot... My family and I want to always be able to share our thoughts and feelings about her., not only with ourselves but with everyone who knew and loved this unique, one of a kind girl. This is my thoughts today through a poem from me, her grams, who misses her a lot. So... this is for you, Amber.....
(This is a photo that she took of herself. And the lighting was perfect! Amber passed away 9 years ago at age 19)
