Missing you today...

Dad -

I woke up this morning with that empty feeling again. I kept thinking to myself if I could just have one more hug... but I am afraid all that would do is leaving me wanting for one more after that.

I know they say you are in heaven watching over us... but I just wish I could see you, talk to you and just have you back without the physical issues you had here on earth.

A day doesn't go by when I don't think of you... but somedays for some reason are harder than others.

I hope that where ever you are... you never forget how much a part of me you were... and still are. I knew this separation would be hard, but by far it is the hardest thing I have ever had to endure... I am sure this hasn't been easy on you either.

Jessi graduated from highschool last week and turned 18 this week. I remember how much you wanted to be there for both. She is an amazing young woman and I know you are proud of her.

Mom seems to be hanging in, but I just don't know how to truly comfort her. I am doing my best to keep my promise to you to take care of her.

Wendy planted a vegetable garden in your memory this year... I think she thinks of you every time she is out there in it.

I am trying to stay strong... but today I couldn't help but cry!

I love you so much,
Amy
