I take comfort in the following words when my parents passed away. "Grief, I’ve learned, is really just love. It’s all the love you want to give, but cannot. All that unspent love gathers up in the corners of your eyes, the lump in your throat, and in that hollow part of your chest. Grief is just love with no place to go" Mind yourself Catherine ❤❤❤ Quote is from Jamie Anderson
@valeriemccarthy1975 Wow thank you! I had always knew that grief was a good thing a natural process an important one that is better to live slowly and not to rush, but your words touch my heart what a beautiful way to describe all those feelings and fisical sensations ♡
Just a thought everyone to help Catherine with income. Please leave her channel on to play so that she gets that ad revenue. I leave her channel on, even though I’ve seen them all, to play as I do things around the house. Or when I’m at work.
Oh dear Catherine, sending you my deepest condolences for the loss of your mum and that you lost your dad so young. Life is swift, as you know. Take care of yourself and your heart. Grief comes in waves. We can have difficulty remembering things, lose our words, have months of fatigue. I lost my mom 6 years ago and I cried all the time, visited her grave almost every day then eventually I stabilized but it took years. We all need time to gain our strength back. Be gentle with yourself dear heart. Sending you much love and strength. ❤
Like I said before my condolences to you and your family. I'm glad you had the energy to come back to RUclips. I had said, I would be here for whenever you were emotionally strong enough to come on to make a video for all of us. However, if you need more time to heal then by all means do so. I know how hard it is. I lost my dad when I was 17 years old and my mom when I was 26 years old. I know how hard that is. But maybe to help you heal emotionally you can see it as she (your mom) is no longer suffering. That helped me a lot when I felt like crying but just thinking of that and what my mom would always say helped me a lot. My mom would always tell me "do not cry once I'm gone. Pray for me instead to help me reach the promised land." I hope this might help you or anyone going through this heart break and pain.
Losing your mother is a terrible pain that will be with you for some time. My heart goes out to you. When my father died several years ago, we took flannel shirts that he loved to wear to a woman who made us teddy bears like the one you made to honor your mother. She placed a small pocket on its back in which she put a laminated prayer card that the funeral home gives you. It contained a picture of him and his birth and death dates.. That was a wonderful way to honor him and keep him on display and in our hearts.
I just lost my Mom a few days ago. Reading those words makes it very real. Thank you for your thoughtful video and love the teddies made from her coat. Hugs and love.
@@DaintyDiaries - I wanted to give back to you for all the wonderful and lovely and creative and inspiring videos that I look forward to. ❤️ I think I started watching your RUclips channel near the beginning of Covid and the way you present information is so refreshing and authentic (as much as is possible on a virtual platform). So THANK YOU! I’m now doing a “wayyy back” viewing of your much earlier videos and learning so much about diving in and getting small DIYs to DONE.
Thanks for sharing Catherine, we understand your energy levels are all over the place.Take comfort in your crafting and beautiful garden.Sending you strength and peace, take care of yourself ❤.
I’m so sorry for your loss. I love the bears that you’ve made from your mother’s coat. What great comfort they will bring. Take care of yourself during this difficult time.
Oh, dear heart, I'm so sorry for your loss and pain. You are brave Cathrine to be even making this video! Sending you all my Mama hugs. Go gently with your grief. We will all be here when you are feeling better. XO
I am very sorry for your loss. Missing her never stops, but the pain does get easier over time. What a wonderful way to use her coat. The bears are so cute.
You are a daughter any mother would be proud of. I'm sure she is smiling down at you now as you adjust to this new and unexpected normal in your life. The bears are adorable and such a wonderful way to honor and keep her near you.
Catherine, these bears are beautiful and such a lovely thing to make! Whenever you feel overwhelmed, talk to your mom. Even though she is not there in the flesh, her spirit lives on and she will hear you. Big hug and take all the time you need 🙏
You are one strong, centered, well adjusted woman. Most humans could not have gotten through this video with this much pose and grace. I am sorry for your loss. The bears are a beautiful idea. My deepest sympathies to you and your family at this time.
I used to watch you often when i was looking after my mum, but when she passed we moved and so many things happened all at once. I just happened to see this video and I am truly sorry for the loss of your lovely mum. My heart goes out to you dear Catherine... sending you lots of love ❤️
@@halcyonday l have special bear wot was made from my older big sister clothes she died from kidney failure 10 years ago she brought me and rest of brothers and sisters up as well as her own two children both my parents died when l was very young, this special bear has my sister favourite perfume on it every time pick up l can smell her
I respect you so much for honoring your mum's wishes even in her passing. My heart breaks for your family and the grief you must feel so close together. I'm glad you have someone to help you navigate this new reality.
The bears are such a lovely way of keeping your mom close. I am so sorry for your loss. Continued blessings to you and your family. Peace, Love and Light to you all.
Sweet Catherine, I am so deeply sorry for your loss. I am praying for you and your family. Father, I ask that you show Catherine that you are with her, that you are holding her hand and that you will carry her through this. Show her how much you love her, show her how much you love her mum. Be with her always, but especially now Lord. - Amen
I'm so very sorry for the loss of your mom. My thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time. I love the memory bears you have created from her coat, what a sweet and precious way to keep her close. Blessings be upon you.
I was going to suggest to everyone to watch old videos so your income will remain. Such sweet memory bears, please do what ever it takes to heal. Loosing your parents makes you feel like an orphan. Hugs sweet girl! ❤
Dear Catherine...I wish I could just give you a hug...take time to be kind to yourself!! So glad to see a video but can hear the sadness in your voice...❤Be blessed ... spring love from South Africa 🇿🇦
I hear you thanking us for being there for you, but I think we should be thanking YOU for sharing your garden, talents and life with us. It's good for all us to be reminded of how precious life is. Take care, sweet lady. ❤
My Mum’s been gone 31 years this year, and I still miss her, miss sharing things with her. Spending time with her. My one consolation is that I know I will see her again one day. You will always miss your Mum, but you will be able to remember with smiles instead of tears (mostly) as time goes by. God bless you darling.
Sincere Condolences Catherine. I lost my mum when i was 23 and my father at 32. Focusing on what they taught and shared is a warm feeling and testimony of knowledge, values, respect, kindness. Catherine you are a wonderful person, continue doing what you love. Take care 🐻
Oh, Catherine. I'm so sorry for the loss of your mom. My dad passed last month, and the experience has been profound. I heard someone say that grief is like learning another language; once you experience it firsthand, you become a native speaker. So glad you are taking time and sending much love to you.
My condolences on the loss of your beloved mother, Catherine 💔🥺 We believe that we will have our mother for the rest of our lives, but sadly only for the rest of her life. ❤🩹 For those of us who have also lost our beautiful mothers it has been a cathartic walk down memory lane with you. Your memory bears are beautiful Thank you for sharing.🙏🏻
It is really lovely to see your beautiful face, Cathrine. We would all love to hug you. Just keep breathing. Sending you lots of love and white light .💕❤️💕❤️
Awe sweetheart! I’m lifting you up in prayer 🙏🏻 💕 Love your sweet mama’s coat bears! When my husband passed I had a bear made for my daughter out of her daddy daughter dance dress & his tie! It came out beautiful & she loved it! We’re here for you & as I say now after loss… not rest in peace but celebrate in Glory beloved! 💕
You are so strong, Catherine. I could feel your pain in your voice. Please pamper yourself with what gives your comfort in this time of grief. And I hope you can feel the huge collective hug that we send you from all corners of the world. May your beautiful mom rest in peace.
Because these bears are made with your moms jacket. It is such a wonderful way to stay connected to your mom and help with the grief you are feeling. Blessings to you young lady.
Loosing your mum suddenly is so very hard and gut wrenching, it takes a lot of time to process so be kind to yourself- this RUclips stuff can wait and mending your heart is so much more important. Of course doing some beautiful crafting always helps 😊
Dear Catherine, I've been thinking of you and your family over the past few weeks. Your Mom must have been so proud to see you grow into such a creative, kind, talented, and gentle woman. I hope memories of your Mom, though maybe painful at times, will also bring you some comfort. Those sweet bears are a wonderful way to remember her 😊
I am so sorry for your loss. A quote I always find comfort in, is one from Emily Dickinson: “Unable are the loved to die, for love is immortality.” Take care of yourself 🕊
I hope you are not that bad, dear Catherine. To lose the mother at your young age is terrible. My siblings and I experienced the the same loss when we were in our thirties. It is much too early, we would have needed her throughout the years. So I feel very sorry for you and your family. Take time, as much as you need.However, your idea is lovely.❤
The Teddy Bears are adorable and a great way to honor the memories of your Mom. It's not easy losing a Mother or Father, you have been very strong. Take care Catherine and take whatever time you need. God Bless
I am so sorry for your loss sweetheart. When my Mum died it took me at least a few years before the world became right - side up again. Keep seeing your therapist sweetheart, it will get better as you go through your grief. Thank you for this visual treat on how to make some bears. They are beautiful and very healing. Glad to know that you have supported yourself and given yourself the biggest gift of quiet, peace and reflection. God bless.❤😊🙏
So sorry about the loss of your mom. Take your time to grieve. You are owed that without explanation. Your parents did a wonderful job, that is obvious. They can rest in heaven knowing that.
Hi Catherine. Despite the loss you have endured, your message of gentleness and kindness to others in the same situation shows how big your heart is. Sending Blessings and Prayers to you & your family. Comforting, loving, strengthening hugs from Canada.
Catherine, I am so sorry for the loss of your mother. Your kind heart and calming presence brought me a lot of comfort during the pandemic when I found your channel. I know I am just a stranger on the internet, but I hope you can feel the sincere love and support I am sending your way.
Thank you so much for the kind words Jules ❤️ I’m glad you were able to find comfort during that time and now I’m finding comfort in all of the support and love so thank you so much ❤️
What a wonderful way to recall and honour you mother. I too am an orphan and even though I am a mom and grandmother there still is that void that never can be filled,
I’m so sorry for your loss. I also lost my father when I was 20 and then my mother at 26. It’s difficult to lose your parents at such a young age. Please take care of yourself and take all the time needed to get better.
I'm so sorry for the loss of your Mother. I know it's not easy. I love the stuffed animals you made from your Mom's jacket. They're adorable. May you find your peace soon. Blessings to your Mother and may she rest in peace. 🙏❤
I lost my mom coming up on 9 years in December. This last December I ask God to take my grief and it is so nice being able to think of her without absolutely breaking down into a sobbing mess. We all have to walk our own path and grief is never the same for two people. My prayers go to you and your family. You are loved by so many people and we will be waiting for you whenever you are ready. Take care of you and take the time you need. ❤
Just know all of us internet strangers are sending love and hugs. Give yourself all the grace you need. Love and take care of yourself and your family.
Oh, Catherine my sincere condolences to you and your family. I lost my Mom in 2003 after being her caregiver for 4 months. Please take the time to grieve and take care of yourself and your family. I will tell you this it takes time and will sneak up on you, so be kind to yourself.
Oh my goodness...I am so sorry for you and yours. That is so hard and this time going forward will be tough. Just know you are being loved from far away.
You came to my mind earlier this week while I was sitting in my backyard enjoying some cooler weather. Two robins landed on my fence and then hopped around my yard looking for worms. You were the first person I'd heard describe them as "gardeners' friends". I am glad you're taking things nice and slow and finding comfort in family, friends, kitty snuggles, and your garden oasis. Thanks for sharing these memory bears with us; they are so sweet.
We're here. Your community is here for you. Thank you for trusting us with your deepest pain, and never worry about disappointing us. There is zero shame in grief, only love.
You were loved by your mom, and close to your family. That is so special. To mourn the love you lost. It comes from the richness of having been loved by her, you loving her back. Love never stops, it goes past the border of life and death. Big hug, Catherine, and I am with you in my heart.
So eloquently put. I’m so sorry for your loss and pray for you and your family. Grace, love, sadness and frustration, calm and hope, and everything and anything in between that you need, may you receive. I am currently looking for a one story home so that I can move my mom(w Parkinson’s) with me. It’s going to be a journey as she’s declining pretty fast now. I know we’re a community of strangers, but I truly send so much love and good thoughts to you and everyone who loved the great lady that was your mum. 💝💞💕💕💕💕
Catherine, thank you for sharing and posting such a heartfelt message of love for your Mom. As many have noted, many viewers have experienced the loss of a loved one but every situation is different. So as you grieve please know that that many of us are sending you virtual hugs. ❤
Bless you,❤️❤️Catherine. You have made a beautiful set of bears there from your mums jacket. We all miss your videos, but as we all will say, take your time, look after yourself, self care is needed. Sending virtual hugs x
I'm sorry for your loss. It's not easy losing a loved one. I love the way you still honor your mother's memory with the adorable bears. Sending you a warm hug.
Dear Catherine, My deepest sympathy on the loss of your mom. I lost my dad in 2012 and my mom in 2014. The best thing I can tell you is taken from a rubber stamp I own. "When someone you love becomes a memory, the memory becomes a treasure". Treasure all of your memories of your mom and hold them close. I will remember you in my prayers.
Aw hunni, I didn't know you had lost your Da at a very young now your Mam. Grief, though the flip side of love, has no set pattern or time limits so you take time to help you process everything without stress or interruption from social media. Thinking of you and all the family and will continue to look back on past videos. Lovely memory bears and much nicer than just keeping the coat. Now more people can share a part of your Mam. Bless ya Cathy and all the family. Sending healing vibes and prayers for you all ❤❤❤❤
I'm so, so sorry for the loss of your mum. She was taken too soon from your life. My heartfelt condolences as you grieve her passing and celebrate her homecoming. Heaven is now richer with a new angel.
Grief is not only emotionally exhausting but hits physically as well. Take care of yourself, I found great solace working in my garden , the rhythm of the seasons naturally pulls you forward . Be it tidying up or planting bulbs for the future or even planting a memory area in your garden. Sometimes you just need to sit still and do nothing and that’s okay , do what you need to do.
My condolences to you and your family for your loss. The keepsake bears are a lovely reminder. Best wishes you find peace and comfort on your journey through the grief process ❤️
Your beautiful little handmade bears are gorgeous, spending time doing what you love and allow yourself to adjust to life going forward without someone you love, my heart goes out to you ❤ ...
Hi Catherine, I am so sorry for the loss of your Mam, please accept my sincere & deepest condolences, also in memory of your dad. 🙏 The little bears are adorable and what a great idea for you to make them with your Mam's coat, beautiful. You are a beautiful person inside and out. I lost my Mom 33 yrs ago and still miss her dearly. Sending warm healing hugs to you and your family🤗. Lots of love Kathy 💕💕(Ontario, Canada)
I take comfort in the following words when my parents passed away. "Grief, I’ve learned, is really just love. It’s all the love you want to give, but cannot. All that unspent love gathers up in the corners of your eyes, the lump in your throat, and in that hollow part of your chest. Grief is just love with no place to go"

That is Beautiful!!
That’s made me cry because it feels so true ❤
@valeriemccarthy1975 Wow thank you!
I had always knew that grief was a good thing a natural process an important one that is better to live slowly and not to rush, but your words touch my heart what a beautiful way to describe all those feelings and fisical sensations ♡
Thank you for this!
@@valeriemccarthy1975 wow that’s so beautiful!
Just a thought everyone to help Catherine with income. Please leave her channel on to play so that she gets that ad revenue. I leave her channel on, even though I’ve seen them all, to play as I do things around the house. Or when I’m at work.
Yes! I do this when I'm cleaning, I can't watch most of the time, I just like having something on. So I shall run a Catherine marathon ❤
Oh dear Catherine, sending you my deepest condolences for the loss of your mum and that you lost your dad so young. Life is swift, as you know. Take care of yourself and your heart. Grief comes in waves. We can have difficulty remembering things, lose our words, have months of fatigue. I lost my mom 6 years ago and I cried all the time, visited her grave almost every day then eventually I stabilized but it took years. We all need time to gain our strength back. Be gentle with yourself dear heart. Sending you much love and strength. ❤
@@ellascottagecompany2044 ,great idea. I like to have RUclips playing while I sleep. Catherine's voice is so soothing, I'll pick her channel tonight.
I am so sorry for you loss of you Mother. These adorable teddy bears are a wonderful way to honor her memory and keep her close by.

I had said, I would be here for whenever you were emotionally strong enough to come on to make a video for all of us. However, if you need more time to heal then by all means do so.

Losing your mother is a terrible pain that will be with you for some time. My heart goes out to you. When my father died several years ago, we took flannel shirts that he loved to wear to a woman who made us teddy bears like the one you made to honor your mother. She placed a small pocket on its back in which she put a laminated prayer card that the funeral home gives you. It contained a picture of him and his birth and death dates.. That was a wonderful way to honor him and keep him on display and in our hearts.
I just lost my Mom a few days ago. Reading those words makes it very real. Thank you for your thoughtful video and love the teddies made from her coat. Hugs and love.
I’m so so sorry for your recent loss, thinking of you x ❤

I’m so sorry for your loss. I also lost my father when I was 20 and then my mother at 26. It’s difficult to lose your parents at such a young age. Please take care of yourself and take all the time needed to get better.
I'm so sorry for the loss of your Mother. I know it's not easy. I love the stuffed animals you made from your Mom's jacket. They're adorable. May you find your peace soon. Blessings to your Mother and may she rest in peace. 🙏❤
I lost my mom coming up on 9 years in December. This last December I ask God to take my grief and it is so nice being able to think of her without absolutely breaking down into a sobbing mess. We all have to walk our own path and grief is never the same for two people. My prayers go to you and your family. You are loved by so many people and we will be waiting for you whenever you are ready. Take care of you and take the time you need. ❤
The bears are sweet. Grief and healing need a lot of space, and I wish you all that you need ❤
The bears are adorable, made from your mother's favorite coat. 😍 and such a great way to remember your mom ❤
Just know all of us internet strangers are sending love and hugs. Give yourself all the grace you need. Love and take care of yourself and your family.
Oh, Catherine my sincere condolences to you and your family. I lost my Mom in 2003 after being her caregiver for 4 months. Please take the time to grieve and take care of yourself and your family. I will tell you this it takes time and will sneak up on you, so be kind to yourself.
Catherine, I'm so sorry for your loss. May God place his gentle hands upon you as you move through your grief. 💙🙏🇨🇦
Oh my goodness...I am so sorry for you and yours. That is so hard and this time going forward will be tough. Just know you are being loved from far away.
I love what you made from your Mom's coat . My heart and prayers are with you at this point in your life. So very sorry for your loss 🙏🤗🙏💓💕💞
You came to my mind earlier this week while I was sitting in my backyard enjoying some cooler weather. Two robins landed on my fence and then hopped around my yard looking for worms. You were the first person I'd heard describe them as "gardeners' friends". I am glad you're taking things nice and slow and finding comfort in family, friends, kitty snuggles, and your garden oasis. Thanks for sharing these memory bears with us; they are so sweet.
We're here. Your community is here for you. Thank you for trusting us with your deepest pain, and never worry about disappointing us. There is zero shame in grief, only love.
The bears are so sweet; what lovely keepsakes of your mother.
You were loved by your mom, and close to your family. That is so special. To mourn the love you lost. It comes from the richness of having been loved by her, you loving her back. Love never stops, it goes past the border of life and death. Big hug, Catherine, and I am with you in my heart.
So very true, beautiful words ❤
So eloquently put. I’m so sorry for your loss and pray for you and your family. Grace, love, sadness and frustration, calm and hope, and everything and anything in between that you need, may you receive. I am currently looking for a one story home so that I can move my mom(w Parkinson’s) with me. It’s going to be a journey as she’s declining pretty fast now. I know we’re a community of strangers, but I truly send so much love and good thoughts to you and everyone who loved the great lady that was your mum. 💝💞💕💕💕💕
Also, the bears are so precious! 🥰🎀
Catherine, thank you for sharing and posting such a heartfelt message of love for your Mom. As many have noted, many viewers have experienced the loss of a loved one but every situation is different. So as you grieve please know that that many of us are sending you virtual hugs. ❤
Bless you,❤️❤️Catherine. You have made a beautiful set of bears there from your mums jacket. We all miss your videos, but as we all will say, take your time, look after yourself, self care is needed. Sending virtual hugs x
I'm sorry for your loss. It's not easy losing a loved one. I love the way you still honor your mother's memory with the adorable bears. Sending you a warm hug.
Dearest Catherine, so good to see you. Take your time and be good to yourself. I promise you it gets easier. 💝
I’m so sorry for your loss Catherine x
So sorry for your loss! Prayers for you and your family! The bears are beautiful.
Dear Catherine, My deepest sympathy on the loss of your mom. I lost my dad in 2012 and my mom in 2014. The best thing I can tell you is taken from a rubber stamp I own. "When someone you love becomes a memory, the memory becomes a treasure". Treasure all of your memories of your mom and hold them close. I will remember you in my prayers.
So sorry for your loss Catherine ❤ what a beautiful way to honor your mom doing these beautiful teddy bears 🧸
Sending you a big hug, lots of Love ❤️, and Many Prayers 🙏 Catherine. God Bless you and your family ❤❤❤❤
Aw hunni, I didn't know you had lost your Da at a very young now your Mam. Grief, though the flip side of love, has no set pattern or time limits so you take time to help you process everything without stress or interruption from social media. Thinking of you and all the family and will continue to look back on past videos. Lovely memory bears and much nicer than just keeping the coat. Now more people can share a part of your Mam. Bless ya Cathy and all the family. Sending healing vibes and prayers for you all ❤❤❤❤
I'm so, so sorry for the loss of your mum. She was taken too soon from your life. My heartfelt condolences as you grieve her passing and celebrate her homecoming. Heaven is now richer with a new angel.
Grief is not only emotionally exhausting but hits physically as well. Take care of yourself, I found great solace working in my garden , the rhythm of the seasons naturally pulls you forward . Be it tidying up or planting bulbs for the future or even planting a memory area in your garden. Sometimes you just need to sit still and do nothing and that’s okay , do what you need to do.
I’m so sorry for your loss. What a beautiful way to honour and remember your mum. Sending you strength and comfort during this difficult time.
God bless you, Catherine, as you navigate this time of grief. I hope these lovely teddy bears can bring you some comfort. ❤
So so sorry Catherine you and your family will be in my prayers RIP mama ❤🫂🙏🏻
My precious friend, I have been praying for you and your dear family - thank you for giving us an update. We love you 🥰
My condolences to you and your family for your loss. The keepsake bears are a lovely reminder. Best wishes you find peace and comfort on your journey through the grief process ❤️
Your beautiful little handmade bears are gorgeous, spending time doing what you love and allow yourself to adjust to life going forward without someone you love, my heart goes out to you ❤ ...
Hi Catherine, I am so sorry for the loss of your Mam, please accept my sincere & deepest condolences, also in memory of your dad. 🙏 The little bears are adorable and what a great idea for you to make them with your Mam's coat, beautiful. You are a beautiful person inside and out. I lost my Mom 33 yrs ago and still miss her dearly. Sending warm healing hugs to you and your family🤗. Lots of love Kathy 💕💕(Ontario, Canada)
