10 years today without Mum. ❤️
It’s hard to believe a whole decade has passed.
Mum was one of the most courageous and inspiring people I’ve ever known. She had such a can-do attitude to life — strong, determined, caring and always encouraging us to keep going.
She spent 35 years as a nurse, dedicating so much of her life to caring for others. That said so much about the person she was — compassionate, hardworking and always there when someone needed her. But above everything else, she loved her family so very much.
I wish she could see Holly and Freddie growing up and the people they are becoming. I wish she could see where life has taken us.
She died just before I began my journey into floristry, and I often think about how much she would have loved what we are doing today. I know she would have been cheering us on, interested in every little detail and probably offering plenty of ideas along the way! 🌸
So today, alongside missing her terribly, I’m remembering everything she taught me — be courageous, believe you can, care about people and make the most of the life you have.
And if you’re lucky enough to still have your Mum, treasure those ordinary moments. Spend the time. Take the photos. Have the conversations. Laugh together. Make the memories.
Because one day, those seemingly ordinary moments become the most precious ones of all.
10 years, Mum. So much has happened, and I so wish you were here to see it.
Forever loved. Forever missed. ❤️
