the hardest goodbye

3 years ago today my then 6 year old hugged and kissed his Meme goodbye for the last time.

She left us a few days later but he didn’t see her after this day. Not until her viewing.

I can’t help but tear up at the pictures I took. Remembering how I didn’t know that was the last time but feeling pretty sure this was going to be it.

I don’t know how I have survived the past 3 years without her. Without her jokes, her love, her just being there regardless of what else was happening.

I pray my sweet boy remembers her. Not just from what he’s been told but from the relationship they had. She loved him so.
