Question for those of you with deceased parents

This may sound weird, but here goes. My mom passed away suddenly a few years ago, before we were even TTC. Obviously it's always been very hard to think about the fact that my mom won't ever know my kids, and vice versa. However, I always kind of took comfort in "knowing" that they would be genetically related to her and that a part of her would live on within them. Now that we are unable to have a biological child and are planning to adopt, it is upsetting to me. It is the only "issue" I have with adoption right now. It's just hard to think that my kids will have no connection to my mother whatsoever. Has anyone else ever felt this way, and if so, is there anything that helped you get through it?
