| My mom's favorite: purple irises |

My mother passed away on January 8, 2013, so she is celebrating her second Mother's Day in heaven this year. We all miss her greatly, but we wouldn't wish her to leave her beautiful mansion in heaven just to see us again. For as she told me before she left, "Don't worry about me. I will be in heaven waiting for you."
That's definitely a promise, Mom. We'll see you later.
The photos below are from various stages of her life; Dad was in the Army, so we lived a lot of places as I was growing up. It was a fantastic life, and Mom took it all in stride--no mean feat:
