Your birthday:)

On your Birthday

Today you would have turned 29…

A milestone in life, you deserved to reach

You would have laughed about the fact that it was your last year

Of your 20s

You would have celebrated, lived, laughed, loved…on this day

The twinkle in your eye, would have been infectious…

You would have donned a pretty dress,

Some high heeled shoes,

Lipstick to die for and  of course your eyes would have “glowed” as usual!!

 I can not explain  how much we miss you

It hurts to even try ..

We try to keep your spirit alive with all the great memories.

But they are always flooded  by our sadness

Where would you have been by now? The life you did not get to live

Would you have been married? Would you have been working? at home? overseas?

Would you be tramping the world with friends or working at some high powered international post? Like I always though you one day would have….

Would you have been a mother by now…you would have made a great mother.

Mum would have made you cake if you were at home…something rich with buttercream and lots of colour…perhaps you would have gone celebrating with your friends

Or we would have gone out for chinese.

We miss you so much, your Savaii drop ins…never hesitating to mix with the everyday people, the workers  the village….so beautiful and also so humble…

We miss you immensely words can not say

There is not a day that goes by without you on our minds. When we look at each other, ourselves, our memories and pictures.

There is a wall dedicated to you at home. The first thing any visitor sees when entering our house

Is the big purple wall with pictures and flowers and messages for  you…some pink ribbons and glitter

It lights up our lives a little and reminds us how we will never forget you and how lucky we were to love you even if just for a short time

It stuns everyone else and chokes em up a little…its amusing to watch sometimesJ

We hope you are at peace and are watching over us now….

Another birthday where you are never forgotten,

Another birthday for us to miss …

Happy birthday little sister- we love you always xoxo
