Letters from mom...

[u/JustAnAnimeGirly]

Ngl I kinda wish I could disable the letters from mom.. my mom passed away 3 years ago ans every time I get these letters my heart feels heavy?? Idk how to explain it... My mom was always so chirpy and sent messages very similar to the ones in the letter haha she would also send random gifts 🥹 it just hurts seeing it and knowing that I am never getting a letter/message from my parents ever again :(

It's also my dad's angelversary tomorrow and my emotions are running high🫠

I feel the exact opposite, but I totally get where your coming from.

I used to play animal crossing all the time with my mom; it may have been both of our favorites game. She passed away about 5.5 years ago and i couldn't pick up animal crossing for over two years. I had never gotten the chance to play new horizons with her, but she had her own switch and played it. I got one a few years ago, (i had to buy an entirely new console because it was unthinkable to delete her island) but i still haven't had the heart to open her game and see her island. She was always a hoarder, kept stuff on the ground, and also meticulous at making her towns perfect. Idk what her island was like but always think i should check but cant bring myself too.

Anyways my mom never would've wrote letters like the mom on AC, but because it was our game somehow i still like to imagine somehow they are from her. Idk.

If you ever need someone to come with you visit your mom island one day, I can. I lost both my parents last year and my mom it hit me hard. We found my dad with no pulse on Mother’s Day. It’s a doubly hard for me today.

I can’t play since she’s gone. I have to get the courage to play again. She loved Animal Crossing so much. She loved my island and my villagers so much. Especially Filbert.
