Happy Birthday Daddy

Daddy, I thought of you today, as I often do, when I look at the flowers shooting up after the rain and the trees all full of bloom. I know you are in Heaven and at Peace with your heavenly family now, but I still miss you. The advice you would give me whether I asked for it or not; the way you laughed when Mommy forgot what she was doing; the way you cried when we would sing an old hymn; the random phone calls "just wondering how you are", I miss it all! Mommy talks of you often, with more smiles now than tears. So many fond memories that she lovingly recalls and shares with us often of days when times were hard, babies were all about and love was plentiful. She tells me that she is ready to go to Heaven with a smile. I know she wants to see Jesus but she will get to see you too and her babies she talks so much about. So keep watching over us while we finish our journey here on earth, for it won't be long, I think, that Mommy will join you on the throne. Have a happy birthday today pain free with your new body and new life. We are thinking of you, not with tears, but smiles and laughter!
