on the up and up

When I think of Mom these days, it is mostly with a smile on my face, rather than tears. The transition has happened quietly over the last month as I made it past the first anniversary of her death. I think it also ties into my own hormonal menopausal mess finally easing off. Grieving is never easy, and hot flashes, sudden anxiety for no reason,

It has been a difficult year for you in various ways, for sure. I'm glad things are gradually easing a little bit. Your mom was such a wonderful person, so vibrant, and I'm glad that now your thoughts and remembrances of her are feeling more pleasant and less upsetting as you move through the grieving process. Thinking of you and continuing to remember you in prayer. Love, Erin
