I wish you were here to tell us it’ll all be ok. I miss that... You always gave me a good kick in the ass, or a pat on the back and a good talk when I needed it. That meant a lot to me and I think we all needed that from you. This past couple of years has been hard. Too many changes, and too many hard times for us all. We’re all hurting, everyday. This is our second Christmas without you here and it’s unbelievably hard. Everything has changed and I don’t feel like our family is, or ever will be, the same. Your grandkids are growing up more and more everyday, and way too fast. Aimee and Cody are bringing in another grand baby! Can you believe that!!?? I wish you were here to teach them about life, and to share your wisdom, the way you shared it with us. Nobody can fill your shoes. We all pretend to move on and everyone hides their feelings, in an attempt to be strong, but it really doesn’t work. We all hurt and miss you you... We loved you more than you’ll ever know.
