She was my momma’s mom…but so much more. She was my Mom Nita…our Mom Nita. She epitomized orneriness, which I admired deeply.
She was small but mighty. Her husband was the first man I ever loved and she shared him with me graciously.
She was a prayer ninja…often the only connection I felt I had to God.
She called my children “her kids” and my twins were forever “her babies”. She rocked each of my babies, loved them - and me - unconditionally.
I am rarely at a loss for words…but losing her has left me searching for the words to capture all that she meant to me.
She helped me raise my kids and replaced the grandma that they lost before they were ever born. She loved them beyond measure. Their love and adoration for her is limitless. The hole in our hearts will never be filled.
My love for her was perfectly imperfect. We didn’t always agree. We hugged tightly. We loved fully and loved being together. We laughed until our sides split.
She wasn’t overly fond of selfies but I insisted.
She was a great travel buddy and loved to go on work trips with me.
She lost more sleep worrying about me than I’ll ever know.
For the last 23 years she was not just my Mom Nita, but my mom.
My family and I treasure the years that she spent living with us. We are so grateful for that time with her.
I envision her with Tall Dad and their 2 babies they lost as infants and with my momma. She’s with her siblings and so many who left before her.
My heart is heavy, but I know she is looking down telling me (as she so often did), “I’m Ok honey, don’t worry about me. You just keep on keeping on”.
Sometimes 94 years just isn’t quite enough.
