The Life of My Sweet Nephew
John was born on February 21, 1992 & that was the most blessed day because he was my first born nephew. I was so thrilled to be his Aunt. I remember the first time I held him in my arms, The joy that filled my heart was more then I could ever feel. As he began to notice his feet, hands & everything around him, brought happiness to my heart. I couldn't wait for him to walk, talk, & begin his life. I remember when he went for his drivers permit. He called me up & said, "Ce Ce, I can drive now" The excitment in his voice was overwhelming. I was so happy for him & I knew he was ready to start his life. When he bought his first car, I was thrilled. With him being John, he said, "Ce Ce, it is just a car" but it was his first car. I couldn't wait to see what his life was going to bring him. Couldn't wait for him to get married, have children so I could be a great Aunt & so much more....but all that changed on November 3, 2012. That day changed my whole life. I lost my first born nephew that evening & my heart tore into a million pieces. I will never see him get married, have children, & see where his life was going to take him. He was like a son to me & I miss him so much. The grief that I carry since that day, has really torn my life apart. I miss him watching movies together, watching him play his games, cooking his favorite meals, rolling my eyes to his jokes & so much more. He left quite a legacy in his life & that smile will never be forgotten. He made so many friends who miss him so much. I will never understand why God had to take such a young happy going handsome man. We weren't done with him. He will be forever missed & dearly loved by all who knew him. The day we had to say good-bye to him, was the hardest day ever. His passing changed our lives forever & we will never be the same. We love & miss you so much our sweet John. ALWAYS IN OUR HEARTS!!
I Love You,
Ce Ce
I NEVER GOT TO SAY GOODBYE
~Wish that I could go back to the day, when angles came and took you away
I wanted to hold your hand so tight, kiss you gently and say good night
And then just before you had to go
I would tell you how much I love you so
I don't know how, I don't know why
I never got the chance to say goodbye~
