Alyssa put a special birthday cake sticker on the calendar so that we would remember to call you and wish you a Happy Birthday. She doesn't really understand that you have left us. She seemed puzzled today when I said that we couldn't call you. She was excited about your birthday because birthdays mean presents and cake. Who doesn't love birthdays right?
You have been in our thoughts today. I certainly hope that friends and family that have past on have at least thrown you some kind of party on the other side. I can almost hear you laugh...
Happy Birthday Grandpa, we miss you. You would have been 62 today.
What a beautiful post. Tributes like this are part of the healing process.
