She Loved Us Like This

She loved us like this

Every hug, every word was genuine

When she loved us like this

The world was safe

The world was peaceful

She loved us like this

with the love of a mother

the love of an oma

and the love of Nokomis

and the love of God

She loved us like this

My mother in law passed away on this day a few years ago. She was the victim of a car crash. She left us suddenly. When we were going through family pictures, we found this. My daughter said Oh Cassandra,,,you are so lucky to have a memory photo like this. The thing is, She loved us all like this. When I close my eyes and think of her, I can feel her embrace, and remember when she hugged me like this. She loved us all like this. We must learn from her example.
