My dear little Henry I'm going to try to put into words how much you mean to me, in my 71 years the almost 15 I shared with you were by far the best, I grew attached to you early on and more so every year when you were 7 or 8 I realized whenever the time came for me to let you go I was not going to handle it well, you had filled such a large void in my life that I could not imagine life without you, but I told myself you were still young yet we have plenty of time but I never took any of our time together for granted for that reason,more years went by and suddenly I was facing the day I had been dreading I had to do what was best for you and not think of the pain it would cause me, I don't know how I got through it. It is now 16 months since that day the pain is not as sharp now it lies just under the surface it comes to the top very easily with just about any little thing that makes me think of you. I miss you badly little man your greetings at the door when I come home, your good mornings at the bottom of the stairs, you sleeping on my chest when I take a nap,sitting on my lap at night wanting to be covered with your fleece,wanting to be picked up and carried around on a walkabout.I wouldn't trade it for anything it was the best can't wait to see you on the other side, I love you Henry Merry Christmas Dad |
