The broken chain

I'm pretty sure I've posted this before, but its my favorite poem so here it is again...

The Broken Chain

Author Unknown

We little knew that morning that

God was going to call your name.

In life we loved you dearly.

In death we do the same.

It broke our hearts to lose you,

you did not go alone;

for part of us went with you,

the day God called you home.

You left us peaceful memories,

your love is still our guide;

and though we cannot see you,

you are always at our side.

Our family chain is broken

and nothing seems the same,

but as God calls us one by one,

the chain will link again.

Today would have been my moms 48th birthday. I can't believe its almost been 5 years since that awful car accident. That day is both fuzzy and blurry yet clear as day in my mind. Its probably kind of hard to understand. I remember so many details of that day, but at the same time not enough details. I can't believe its already this time of year again. I love and miss you mom!

Happy Birthday!!
