A Daughter's Promise
Every time that I smile,Every time that I sigh,I think of your face,And a tear escapes my eye.You were my world,My inspiration and my heart,But when you left me,I thought I would fall apart.You were my best friend,My one true 'confidante',And that's not all you were,You were also my mom.I didn't want to live without you,But you would have wanted me to,And if there's anyone I want to make happy,That anyone is you I would have given

Mom this month will be a year that you have been gone and i don't know how we survived. I miss you more and more everyday. I can still remember when I called you the Friday before you passed away after I dropped Jenny off at her game. I was crying because I was so frustrated and you said to me in the sweetest voice" Calm Down take a deep breathe and come home" It helped I stopped crying and

The last memory I have of you is when we were in the kitchen and I was washing dishes and you were cutting up the chilli for the salsa we were going to have later that day with dinner and you I asked you why are you taking the seeds out and you said in case I might want to eat some there are no seeds so your dad can't get mad at me for eating it. I laughed

To my brother David and family. This is hard for me to put into words what Sylvia meant to me. She was like a sister to me and it saddens to me to know that she is no longer here with us. I looked forward to the times when Sylvia and David drove to chino hills to come see Danny and I. Those were the times we would go out to eat and catch up. I will miss those days.
