There is a Season....
My Season with my Sweet Little Mama...
has passed.
Fern Bushong Christiansen
Her Season here with us;
July 17, 1933
...
June 6, 2014
She filled in her dash...
with enough love to remember forever!
Hearts now broken,
clinging to the hope of a sweet reunion,
over the rainbow, where Mom's little bluebirds fly,
In my grieving and brokenness of heart....
I have searched for answers and comfort. My mind always brings me to...
Ecclesiastes 3:2-8 (Excerpts)...
There is a time for everything,
and a season for every activity under the heavens:
A time to be born and a time to die,
a time to plant and a time to uproot,
a time to weep and a time to laugh,
a time to mourn and a time to dance...
Select this link to see my sweet little Mama dance with my son Jake at my daughter Emily's wedding...fun loving sweet little Mama....her last dance here on earth...
If she could hear me...I would thank her...
For every sweet smile...
each embrace....
words of encouragement,
the comfort of the sound of her voice,
for each time she told me that she was proud of me...that she loved me,
for every sweet Grandma's kiss on my grand babies foreheads,
for every sacrifice,
for each time she waited up for me,
for her daily prayers for me,
for her dedication to her family...devotion to Dad,
for her example of love, forgiveness, gratitude, humility, beauty and grace...
For this full and loving Season....
...I am so thankful!
Sweet Little Mama...
I will never forget our Season together!
In Loving Memory
Hi. I just dropped by to return the blog visit and thank you for taking time to leave your kind comment on mine. This post is such a lovely tribute to your mother! I know you miss her terribly. Thank you for sharing both her and your comfort in losing her.
ReplyDeleteThank you for visiting also and for your kind thoughts and words as well! Yes...missing her terribly but so thankful that the blessing of her in my life remains along with the lessons of love and grace. I hope to honor her...for the rest of my days. ~Blessings to you!
