In the wake of a sudden death, "normal" ceases to exist.
I wasn't ready to say Goodbye.
Drink champagne and dance on the tables with our Mam and when its my turn - come and get me (but don't be late).
If only we knew just how little time we had, I am sure we would have learned to be friends. I will cherish the memories we had as little girls and growing up together. See you on the other side Little Sis xx

Nikki I will miss you so much, just knowing you were here, somewhere was enough, you were always my best friend & made such a difference to my younger life. We had such an amazing childhood & happy times since, you were more than a friend, you were like a little sister that lead me astray, you were on top of the tables, I was under, & how excited you were to hang upside down on those poles, there was never a dull moment 🥰 I know you are no longer here in body but I know you are here in spirit watching over all whom you love, until we meet again my crazy friend, please say hello to Nana, Grandad Auntie Ethel & our Dean 😉♥️ I will never forget you xxx

We loved this time of year. Christmas at home with our Mam and our children. How I wish I could turn the clock back. Mam's Christmas dinners were the best !! Us all being together was the best !! Those Christmas's were the best !! How can we ever compare to the times we were all together and never knew of such loss and emptiness. I'll toast you both on Christmas day and wish for those times again. Fly high Angel and don't be leading Mam astray I love and miss you both so so much xx
