Hi,
1. It was a shame for me as it has been the 4th consecutive years i'd spent that special day away from my mum.
2. It was a shame for me as it has been the 4th consecutive years i'd spent that special day without my mum being with me.
Both phrases are acceptable. I prefer #1. It's a little simpler
