Mum, I miss you so much. I wish I could talk to you to hear your voice again and to tell you how much I love you. I miss you so much but there are so many things I'm going to miss doing with you too, playing games, especially cribbage (even though you normally won), boat holidays, shopping trips, 'paying by parent' (I know that always made you smile). I am who I am because of you and Dad. You always believed in me, always encouraged me to follow me dreams and always made it possible for me to do so. You and Dad have supported me and helped me out so many times and there are not enough words to express my gratitude but I promise I never took anything for granted. I love you Mum and I promise I will always do my best to keep making you proud xxxx
