MY FIRST LOVE IS IN HEAVEN. DIFFERENT MOTHER'S DAY

My mother i believe is in heaven, she was a special human being. Am not saying this because she was my mother but because she was a mother a sister and a friend to everyone who crossed her path. She was an angel here on earth but like they say "you can never know what you have lost until you lose it. 

Many times she said something to me and i walked away, she advised and i didn't listen and sometimes she would caution me and i thought she was being too strict. It's now that i realize that she was a mother playing her role the best way she knew how. She was kind and very loving that she never shouted at us, she never beat us and all she did was care for us and made sure we were well taken care of.

She gave us all her children the best years of her life, she was the mother and father, she was the care taker and guided by Allah she did her job well.

As i look back on my life i find myself wondering did i remember to thank her for all she did for me? For all the times she was by my side? The times when i smiled, laughed,cried and was filled in sorrow? Did i remember to thank her for guiding me, for being my number one cheer leader and for celebrating my success and accept my defeats? Or for teaching me the value of hard work, good judgement, courage and honesty? I wonder if i ever thanked her for the simple things, the laughter, smiles and quiet times we shared.

If i forgot to express my gratitude for any of these things it's a little late for that but i hope that each time i whisper a prayer, no matter how silent or loud it may be it reaches you and whenever you hear it i pray that you a proud of the person i have become. I pray to Allah to forgive me for my short comings as a daughter and to bless you for the wonderful mother you are.

This is the first time i won't send you a mother's day message because you won't receive it, but among the many mothers days we spent together or apart i pray this one is the most special one as i will send you a special prayer for how special you were to everyone who crossed your path.
If you still have your mother, treasure her and treat her well with love, care and respect. Mothers are irreplaceable.

I may have not shown you how much i loved you but in my heart in my mind you were my mother and i smiled whenever people said i look like my mom.
Angels are very rare and when they appear they leave early ad i believe you left us too soon because you were an angel. 

I miss you and my heart breaks whenever i think about you, whenever am faced with a challenge or whenever i need to share good news that you should know first. You loved me first before anyone else and i believe you loved me most. I love you MOM and i don't have words to express how much i miss. I have written this note i have not written in a long time but this is for you. 

This is the first time i spend mother's day without a mother and it's also the first year i spend mother's day as a mother. I'am a mother now without a mother I wish heaven had visiting hours
. May Allah Grant you Jannah Ameen.
