Rest on Mummy (one year gone)

just like yesterday. Still like a dream.
those memories are still alive though you have been gone for a year now. the impact you made in our lives can never be forgotten.
i remember you every minute. i see your hand and feel your touch in everything i do. i still here the sweet voice calling me "Barrister mi".
we are yet to recover from your migration even though you've always thought us to be strong just like you were. we are trying to be strong and carry on, eventhough it is difficult. we never knew you were preparing us for life after you. i cant forget those last moments i spent with you, when you will seat with me in the kitchen guilding me on how to prepare ogbono soup and other delicacies.
you were an extra-ordinary mother,you never stopped praying for your family both nuclear and extended. you were indeed an extra-miler. you poured out yourself for others even unto death. i remembered how worried you were when we didnt hear from aunty Ebun and  when  your mum was ill. i also cannot forget your care for  Daddy's mum when she was with us.
i just cant stop remembering things you did which i cant put all to paper. your exemplary lifestyle of humility and selfless service is amazing and outstanding. even your "olele oni ila" is been missed by the partakers.
growing up,you made me wish to get married to a Nurse or someone who bears the name Kemi or Racheal. you were an epitome of who a mother should be. you knew my closest friends at every stage of my life and you were always interested in the things that concerns us.
I keep asking myself,if God needed you in Heaven more than we need you on Earth. Even though we miss you so much,and our lives have not been the same since you left, but God remains unquestionable.
My resolve to be in Heaven has been ever stronger since you went there. i cant wait to see you and hug you. i feel the sadness whenever i am going home because i remember that i wont be welcomed by your dance and welcoming songs. the house feels empty without you. no one to tell me how i look whenever i am going out anymore.
I am more saddened when i remember how much you gave of yourself and how little you enjoyed. you made lives of those around you so comfortable even at the expense of your own convenience. nothing can replace you in our hearts.
though we can not stop crying and missing you even though we still feel you around us.
love you always mumsy
