My mum

Mother's day has more significance now my mum's gone. It's nice to so something to something to mark the day so I wrote a poem and had it published in my dad's local paper. This is a photo of it.
What surprised me was how much my dad, sister and brother appreciated the gesture.
I really notice the absence of the women in my family sometimes - you realise just how much a grandma, nan and mum mean to the family unit when they're here but there's so much missing when they're gone.
