Kibou: I’m staying home today. I’m not sick or anything. I’m home for another reason. I don’t really want to say anything because I know that... ugh. I dunno.
Yami: You can say it. They have a right to know in a way.
Kibou: Ok. Before I say anything, just know, I’m not posting this so you guys will feel sorry for me.
Today is an extremely important day for me. A big anniversary. I’ll stop holding you in suspense if you’re in it, but....

Today is the 10th anniversary of my mom’s death.

I know that some of you may think that’s nothing. But I just wanted to tell SOMEBODY. Yes, my friends know... but still.
So hence the Angel theme on my site... the song I have on my site is my mom's favorite church hymn and the song that was played at her funeral...
I really miss her, and I barely knew her. If you’re wondering how she passed on, well, I can’t give you the fullest, detailed story, I very young. But it went something like this: My mom and dad got mad at each other for something. My mom moved out of the house, and moved with this guy she knew from work, named Chris, in an apartment. They had a baby, and today 10 years ago, my mom was alone with my half sister. (remember? Savannah?) My mom had a seizure then. She slipped and hit her head in the bathroom. (Chris moved away to Las Vegas with Savannah not much later then that.)
Gawd, it was so hard for me to understand what was going on. Heck, I was only 5. Reality was slapping me in the face. And I still didn’t know what was going on. I’ve heard stories from my mom’s side of the family about what happened when I was younger. Those are my most treasured memories and I think of them often some way or another.
I think it’s amazing that it had been 10 years since she was first gone. I’ve been dreading this day forever, like I wasn’t ever going to see the day. But it’s suddenly here. But I am looking forward to visiting her grave today.
My grandma and I are going to go get a big bouquet of flowers and balloons. Then afterwards, my mom’s family will all go out to dinner.

Still... wow. 10 years have passed. I wish she never left. At least I’ll never forget her.

I am standing strong today, looking towards the sky, never forgeting, knowing there's people loving me in a place where I can't see them.
