Hi Mum, can't believe how long it's been since I last wrote to you. It's true, time is a great healer! I still miss you every single day but I don't cry for you so much now, which is a good thing. This has been an incredibly busy year so far and it's about to get even busier....Mum, we're moving back to Essex! We've made the decision that we would like to grow old with our family around us and watch our grandchildren grow up. We're too far away living here to be a big part of their lives and as you know, as we grow older ourselves, we are going to need our family to be near us. Your grave won't be forgotten Mum, the lady who is moving into our bungalow is going to care for it for us. I will continue to place beautiful flowers for you and visit your grave as often as I possibly can. I know I'm not leaving you behind because I feel you with me, especially when I'm with the grandchildren so you can come to our new home and enjoy the family with us. I hope you are with your loved ones now and I expect Dad is driving you crazy as usual, is he alright? I don't feel him around as much as I do you....maybe he's busy getting into mischief as usual! I will let you know when we've moved, it's not for about another month yet. I will never stop loving you Mum. xxxxx
