Para Siempre Mi Mama

Sueno Contigo

Mom loved having glow in the dark stars in her room on her ceiling.

So, I think she would have loved this background and all the ballooms.

We send them to heaven always. xoxoxo

Meet Me half way. This song is dedicated to my mother. I can`t tell you how many times we have sang this one toghether.

But, it is full of great memories. I love you mommy.

Happy Birthday!

This year my mother`s angel date seems to be hitting me harder.

I was doing so much better. Then I got my grandmother to live with me.

I know it isn`t her fault. Alzheimer`s is a very sad and draining disease.

She keeps forgetting my mom passed away.

Today she said she isn`t dead(in spanish).She is still alive.

She says she is thankful to God for everything and she hopes she will soon

join my mother.

So, as you can see, I am so sad right now. I know I can`t fix this.

I just wish there was a peace in all of this.

It became so much harder when I had to hear grandma call mom`s name everyday.

I often talk to my mom in spirit.

I always wish she were here when I am sick, feeling down and don`t know what to do.

I often feel lost without her here.

However, I also think that since she is in my heart, thoughts and spirit, she will live on inside me.

I am her voice. My mother always admired my strength for some odd reason.

She admired me while, I always admired her.

She taught me to fight for what I believe in.

So, although, it has caused some stress in my life. I still fight for her and all the angels of Domestic Violence everyday.

So, many, go unnoticed.

So, many go without justice.

I am one of millions of children whose mother was wrongfully taken.

So, rather than dwell on what I can`t fix, I focus on whom I can help save.

"Remember My Name"
In loving memory of all who suffered from Domestic Violence

By Susana M. Regan

Do you remember me?

Do you remember my name?

I am the one who`s life is no longer the same

Do you remember my story? The one that`s untold?

If not, then you will
By the time it unfolds.

Remember my name For you will see,
We are one in the same you and me.

Love can be blind
Although you can see
No matter how good

Things may appear to be
Violence is always Lingering around.

Just look and see there is so much

To be found Remember my name!

For I too once carried,

The look of shame Before I was buried

This couldn`t possibly happen to me

There is no doubt!!

No one could ever really find out!

Violence in my life?
This just couldn`t be!

I am supposed to be strong

I am supposed to be free

Rememember my name

For I once was also too

Scared to ask for help

The thought of being a victim, I coud`ve never dealt!

Remember my name

The one who`s story was untold?

I am the one who will never grow old.

I am the one who has children who are now alone

I am the one who should`ve known

Be careful of something too good to be true

Remember my name!!!

My name could be you!

You can have fortune

And you could have fame,

But, violence can happen to us all just the same!

Take a look of where I am now!
Sleeping six feet down under my voice has no sound.

Remember my name,

before you are the next

one to be FOUND!

Our mother is always with us.

She`s the whisper of the leaves as we walk down the street.

She`s the smell of bleach in our freshly laundered socks.

She`s the cool hand on our brow when we`re not feeling well.

Our Mother lives inside our laughter.

She`s crystallized in every tear drop we shed.

She`s the place we came from ... our first home.

She`s the map we follow with every step we take.

She`s our first love and our first heartbreak, and nothing on earth can separate us from her ...

Not time ... not space ... not even death!

In loving memory of our mommy Margarita Estrella Santana Regan Casillo.

Para Siempre en mi Corazon
