This is beautiful. I almost cried. Seriously. I lost my mom when I was 12, that's when I had to leave Charleston (the reason for my blog's name), orphaned, to live in the city far from everything I'd known.
I love this post. I bet your mom knows how blessed she is to have you too. I hope my children write such loving words about me one day!
The photos are so beautiful too...
What a beautiful message and a breathtaking display of photos. Such a tribute is a rare celebration - you are a wonderful daughter to share this with your Mother. These photos take my breath away~~
