Today marks  your 41st birthday and I’m just sitting here thinking’s of how unreal it is that you aren’t here with us.  Dads watching the superbowl without you and his sadness is felt everywhere in our house.  WE MISS YOU LOTS!

We sent balloons to heaven today with notes wishing you a heavenly happy birthday.  How can this be real?  Nothing will ever dull the pain or loss.  

You are with us in our hearts and mind every minute of every day.  We know the truth, but it won’t bring you back to us.  Oh the things I would say and do.  I hope there is a heaven and that we will meet up again someday.  I pray for you.  

Barbara is taking care of my plant I call my “Charlie Plant”. It’s a plant from your memorial service.  I know it sounds silly, but I feel it brings me closer to you.  I can’t have just memories, it’s not enough.  There has to be more.  I love you Charlie.  Miss you Charlie.  Please come home.  

Love Mom
P.S.  Love you more!  

Here we are 8 years today that you went home.  I can only hope that your are happy and surrounded by Gods eternal love.  Free of all pain and filled with happiness and peace.  Know that we love you, miss you and think of you every day of every week. I know you feel the love.  There will never be another Charlie.  

Always loved calling you “Chacha” when you were a toddler.  So many memories of you.  Love you Charlie and  can’t wait to see you again. What a joyous day that will be when my time comes.  No child should ever leave this world before their parent.  You have a baby named after you.  Little Charlie Fortier!  You live on through him and Jason and all of us who knew and loved you.  Missing you big time!  

Why

LOVE ALWAYS MOM!
