My Momma What do I say to God who took you away? I know you can't be with me today? I remember being little and the time we played. I remember you walking me to school each day. I sit here and ask God why But he doesn't answer and these tears I cry. There is a hole here in my heart. I feel as it's been torn apart. I asked for God to hold on a moment and give me time. He did what I asked but the pains still mine. I did what I promised and I let you go. But I am drowning here in my sorrow. So I hope you are up there in that great place. I hope you look down at me with a smile on your face. But what I'd give for one more embrace. As these tears continue down my face. So please wait patiently for me, as I deal with this sorrow For I will see you soon when it's my last tomorrow. Written with love Your daughter Shel the bean

For my beautiful mother: I cannot express the gratefulness I have in my heart for all the things you have done for me. You taught me to be brave, strong, relentless, caring, compassionate, a fighter, and to always remember where I came from because that got me where I am today. You taught me how to make grilled cheese sandwiches, french toast, and above all to remember whose daughter I am when things got tough. I am at peace Momma, cause I know you are no longer in pain, you are in Heaven waiting for me, and you are with Grandma, Grandpa, and Ginger. Whenever I need to talk to you.....I will just look up towards the sky - cause I know you will be looking down on me and guiding me. This life is not easy, it is hard, it is rewarding, it has pain, and it has happiness - but you were there each step of the way, for better or worse. My cheerleader, my rock, my queen, and my Momma. I will miss you beyond what words can describe Momma. But I know you will always be here with me. You are forever in my heart and I love you unconditionally. Till I see you again in Heaven. Your daughter, Nicole Marie Salgado
