Happy Birthday Momma Johnson

I have never met her but the stories I have heard make me feel like I have. Today is Momma Johnson's birthday. Its a hard thing missing your parents and I give Scott all the credit in the world for making it through some days. After the funerals and the wakes eventually it becomes a memory to other people when in reality for the person dealing with it - it is an everyday struggle. The days you have your first child, the questions you have about raising your child or how you were when you were a kid, your daughter doing something special or even the littlest thing that you want them to see, getting a promotion and having them be proud of you, buying your first house and wanting them to walk through it, having them there for holidays, having them there for your daughters first birthday, christening,...I could go on and on. It breaks my heart to think of a child without their mom. I think Scott is one of the bravest and stongest men I have ever met in my life. He is a wonderful, loving and caring father and I couldn't wish for any better. We treasure everyday we have with Brooke knowing that the man upstairs sometimes has a shorter plan for some of us. His mom did an awesome job and I hope I can do as well in raising my daughter. We miss you Momma Johnson and we love you.
