From the moment you came into my life you always were an angel in my eyes. I never was able to figure out just how you did it, but I thought it was wonderful.  A girl so kind and loving and yet so young! I can still see how you would smile that smile of pride when my children, Natalie and Steven, would run to greet you as you came to my door...
Patience and kindness was what you tried to instill in my children who both could not share enough of your time. I remember when Natalie would get me crazy (she still does), it was as if you read my mind and with a gentle hand you were so much more patient than myself. You would take her and go looking for all sorts of living things in my back yard just so I could catch my breath...
It was you, with Steven, I would watch from afar just how you made him feel like a prince and you were so proud of these little people, your little people. They weren't my kids when you walked into my house, it was "Chrissy" who was able to make them feel so special & I thank you.
How about in Florida when you were 16  and wanted to learn how to scuba dive in the pool. You almost had the instructor convinced that not only were you 18, but also that I was your mom...It was when you yelled out to me, "mom can you tell him..." I turned and thought your mother was behind me. I gave a smile and realized just what you were up to.. There are so many moments I remember, I could go on and on. I am blessed to have had you there, again thank you for showing me unconditional love, support and kindness...

Sweet Chrissy, I remember your sweet, funny personality. I remember your laughter and joking, the funny names you made up for people and all our animals. I remember your beauty, inside and out. I will always remember the love you had for all you knew and your great capacity to find the strength for those that needed you most. Have a beautiful Easter. I love you so and wait till we can be together again. Always, Mom
