Since the day you past, it has been really tough on the whole family especially for mama... I didn't realize one thing; though there are 8 sisters and brothers, without you life has changed. We don't laugh the same, have fun the same... I thought as time goes by it would get easier but it's the opposite it gets worse. Maybe as the time passes it will get easier and we could move forward with memories of you that will make us smile again.. grieving has no time limit, it may take a longer period of time.. I know life goes on whether we like it or not... Maybe one day we can all sit together at gatherings and instead of crying, we can smile about all of the great times we had together.
