Your mom looks happy and busy in her yard. And I love the soundtrack too. It sounds like Vivaldi's The Seasons.

She had a pretty yard, with all the flowers and grass. The fire pit is a nice touch too.

Thank you for sharing this with us. I hope when you look at this video, that you'll feel a bit less sad.

I'll miss her, but at least we have a lot of pictures, videos, even some old 8mm films one of my uncles put on DVD.

I lost my mother when I was 30 and it was the hardest loss I have ever experienced.

I wish I had vids of my mom. I know that when she passed I felt like I was no one's kid anymore. It was difficult. I am sorry for your loss and I hope that memories like this comfort you. All best Archae from Yankeepants

The number 1 way to remember your mom is to take the best traits she had and make them your own. She will live on forever that way through you.

There is nothing more to say when you lose a parent except my deepest condolences.

Your love for your Mom comes through loud and clear.
My mom passed eight years ago. I'm sure that quite a few of us here understand exactly what you're feeling right now.

Your mom looked like a very lovely woman. And her yard was so peaceful and beautiful. I'm glad she had such a wonderful place to spend time with you.

Hold on to your memories and all of the love. It will get you through this. And we are all here for you.
