I love words. Words are my thing. But tonight the words are hard to find. Probably because I am struggling to wrap my mind around the drastic turn of events in my life in the past 5 days...
My Mommy died this morning. My heart is broken. But my hope is real.

And the ransomed of the LORD will return, And come with joyful shouting to Zion, With everlasting joy upon their heads. They will find gladness and joy, And sorrow and sighing will flee away.
Isaiah 35:10

Missy. I'm so sorry for your loss. It is never easy to say goodbye, especially to your mom. She is now in Gods hands and will always be watching over you. Prayers for you and your family through this difficult time.
I'm so terribly sorry for your loss. It is so apparent even to just us "readers" how much she is a treasured and loved part of your life, and you hers. I'll be praying for peace for you and your family.
My heart breaks for your family. You will continue to be in my thoughts and prayers.
Missy I loved your relationship with your mom. I loved your unconditional love - adoration even - for each other. I loved the humor and the desire you all had to be in each others presence.
Given how much I will miss watching that from afar, I can't imagine the hole in your life right now.
Call me - whatever you need.
I am so sorry, Missy. I will be praying for you and your family.
You're right---there are no words. We love you.
I am so sorry. I am a blog stalker, but love yours. My mommy died 11 years ago ... and this news of your loss brings it right back. I remember the heart break so well ... God will indeed knit it back together. It will be different ... but you will survive ... and not feel like throwing up every day .. and not feel that ache in your chest. I will pray for you as you go through these difficult days ahead. Amy

I am so sorry for your loss. Though we haven't known each other for long, I can feel your loss and I know the Lord will provide comfort and the assurance that you will meet again. God bless you and your family.
I have not blogged in over a month and have not checked blogs. While walking yesterday I thought of you and your mom and today was motivated to check your blog. It is clear to me that God is raising up prayer support in your time of need. You and your family will be close in prayer. There simply are no words other than to say clearly that God cares and his grace will provide.
I am so very sorry for your loss.
Many prayers headed your way over the weeks ahead. Though I'm just a stranger who found your blog through a friend, I am rejoicing that you had that little trip a couple months ago with your mom and sisters. God is good!
Oh Missy, I am broken for you!! I know that feeling, that horrible awful feeling that Mom is gone. It stings, it burns, it hurts!
Praying for you! Praying for a peace that passes all understanding.
Missy, my heart dropped when I read your words. I read it again hoping I read it wrong... I am so so sorry. Please know that I am praying for you right now and that my family will be praying for you all.
Love and blessings to you. I can't imagine the devastation. Ugh. Can't imagine. Praying for you.
So sorry....praying.....no words to describe....just praying.
I am so sorry. I cannot imagine the pain that you are feeling. But, I do know the joy of knowing that you mommy is sitting at the feet of Jesus!...and Penelope the chicken is sitting on her lap :)
I can't believe it! It just seemed to happen so fast. Seems like you were still making beautiful memories with Gunga right up until the end. I'm so sorry your mom passed away . . . I can't imagine what you must be going through right now. I am praying for you and your family.
MISSY. Love you and am praying for you and your sisters. And the rest of your fam. Hugs.
