It's been so long since I've seen your face or heard your voice that sometimes I find myself forgetting them. It's hard some days with my kids knowing that they'll never meet you or spend time with you I no we constantly butted heads and didn't see eye to eye towards the end I just wish I'd paid alittle more attention to you when you were trying to teach me things so I could emulate that with my kids I know you always did your best and I guess that's all I can hope for myself. I'll always try and uphold and follow thru with what you last told me even though I choose not to listen at the time " you have a good heart use it and always try to help others when you can"
