My mother collected Angels. I brought the one home with me that I looked at for days as I cared for her which was in her room. I had one here at home that I had already bought for her and then she was gone. Last year after Christmas, I found an Angel on sale and immediately bought it and then it hit me with a stab to the heart that mom wasn't here for me to give it to her. So this year, I decided I would buy another angel "for mom". This is something I want to do each year now in memory of mom. These angels will sit with the one that I brought home. Same love for my mother, same mother, but new traditions that I must start. Anybody else starting new traditions to honor their mom? Lots of gentle hugs, Sharon

That is a wonderful thing to do! I sure you will have a beautiful collection! I have not started a "tradition" but after my Mom passed, I had this angel by "Willow Tree" that was given to us called the angel of health. It is nice so I looked into the collection, and I purchased the "angel of remembrance" It truly gives me peace. I have it next to a photograph of my Mom and nephew in my kitchen. I figured that is the room I am in the most and it is right next to my sink, so I can see it all the time. I did recently did purchase two silk butterflies with sequins on them and have them hanging in my kitchen. One is light green, my Mom's favorite color was green. The other one is purple....my favorite color.
On 01/18/08 was the last day I spent with Mom, he 55th bday. I lost her on Feb 9th 08..
I gave her a pewter humminbird. Barried her with it. I got one for myself I hang in my car.
So this xmas while giving my family gifts I gave my dad a gift to open that was for mom. A porcline hummingbird. In a nut shell we cried, and dad said that was so special and the best gift of all. Made me some what happy to know he knew I still thought of her... always.
So hummingbirds are the new tradition and when summer comes I will plant necter flowers so they come to the garden like they always did for mom.
