Not a day goes by that I don’t miss you. For every achievement and for every failure, I wish you were here. For the obstacles and the obsessions, I wish I could call you and ask advice. I wish you were still here to pour your unconditional love into my empty cup. I wish you could call me out of the blue to dote or to just check in. I wish we could share our frustrations with the world and laugh at the ridiculousness together. I’m grateful for all the people you have sent in your stead, but I still miss you Mom.
To the other orphans out there. You aren’t alone.
