Mimi,
today your earthly body was laid to rest. You are such blessing to everyone you meet - and I know that Jesus and Pop are so excited to have you in your forever home, but we will miss you. I know you are painting and drinking margaritas in the rays of God’s sunshine and I know that you feel true happiness.
What a monster life is. The last two weeks, for most of us - have felt like a lifetime. Over that time we have learned lessons of grief, of pain, of love and of community.
We have taught our children what loving from a far really feels like. Today right before your service, I explained to Mason that even when we are not hugging a persons neck, that our heart is still right beside them. I left the room and I asked him, can you feel it? Can you feel my love? And he was so excited to tell me how he could feel it. I explained to him that you, our Mimi, feel our love just like that, so does Pop, and so does our Jesus.
Adam was so blessed to share a life with such a magical mimi like you, and I am so thankful that he shared you with me and my babies - even if it was only for a short time.
During this time when you feel like your (the) world is falling apart - we must remember that there is LOVE. And as long as there is love surrounding you, there is no need to fear. The road may be a little longer and harder than you thought, but everything will always be okay when you are in the hands of Jesus.
Thank you for showing your true love and devotion to this family, we will forever carry your heart, in our hearts.
We love you, Mimi.
xx
