I'm so sorry. My mom passed away 20 years ago this Christmas Day. She suffered so much that it was a blessing no matter what day it was. I miss her still. While the pain isn't so intense, it is still there. Some years from now it will be better but it will be a while.
Through my trying times, and of late there have been many, how I wish I could talk to her.
I'll ask my mom to greet yours and show her the ropes so to speak. One thing my mom did love is Disney and especially The Land. Whenever I go to Epcot I visit The Land in honor of my mom. I think she'd love the changes.
Take care of yourself. My prayers are with you too.
