My mom's cremation and wake

On Saturday Feb 7th my mom was cremated at 4:30pm. After the cremation we had a wake at my house. Tons of friends and family showed up. I set up a few large poster pictures and had a DVD of 155 pictures of my mom playing on the TV. People brought food, flowers and some special gifts for me to treasure. During the wake my husband came out to the kitchen while I was talking with some friends and said "your mom's here..." for a moment my heart stopped. I thought for a second maybe this was all a dream. I said "what??" then my husband said "I mean your mom's ashes". The funeral home brought my mom's ashes in the urn and the small urn necklace. It was just like my mom to show up to a gathering at my house late. It was heartbreaking to know that would be the last time someone would say "your mom's here". My dad didn't come to the wake or the cremation. This is all very hard for him. After the wake I went over to my dad's and took a large poster size pic of my mom and dad on their wedding day kissing. I also took over Margaritas for him to drink with me but he wouldn't. I just sat with him for a little while. This is going to be so hard for him. My mom and dad have been together for years. My mom was a big part of our world and her being gone really hurts.
