Not a day goes by that I don't think about you. I met you when we were in 3rd grade and we stayed friends from then on. We went through everything together including the incredible moment when I helped bring your first child into this world and I was able to cut her umbilical cord. I always said I made Chera's belly button. Enjoying the kids while they grow and watching our kids play together. I believe that we would be lifelong friends and while we watch our children become lifelong friends. We shared those amazing moments and so many more. We were together in the new, hard, incredible, exciting times and everything in between. We knew each other for so long even when life had our moments of us apart it wasn't for long finding our way back to each other sharing our stories and Adventures but now I share those memories in my heart, in my mind and in my dreams wishing I could hear your stories back. I miss you so much it hurts. I miss everything, all the birthdays, car drives while we sing, late night talks, lunch at Native New Yorker the Feed Bag and many other places, the crazy times at concerts and those amazing taco nights at your place while we watched the Disney Channel because the girls had it on and once we put them to bed we forgot to change the channel. I struggle with you being gone losing to many in my lifetime but I know you are with them all. Say hi to everyone and my father. I will see you in my dreams, when I say Elizabeth's name who was names after you even before you passed, when I wear your ring and shirt or listen to our old music.
