Seven years...........



Seven years ago today I lost the most important man in my life. It’s hard to believe you’ve been gone that long. I miss you so much. There are so many new things I would love to share with you and so many other things I didn’t get the chance to share before you left. If I only knew what was about to happen 7 years ago……………. Not a single day goes by that you’re not on my mind. As the years have gone by the pain has gotten a little easier but there are those days that the grief hits like it was yesterday and I’m reminded that you're not here. You have 6 beautiful grandchildren. Unfortunately they won’t get to know you personally but we will share our stories and memories of you with them.

Jacob has grown into such a nice young boy. He’s 10 years old already and in the 4th grade. He’s growing up way too fast. Mallorie is 6 and in 1st grade. She was born a few days before your birthday. Emma will be 4 in March. She is such a card. She always has something silly to say. Karisa will be 4 in July. She is one of a kind and keeps her mom and dad on their toes. MaKena, she’s the youngest of the 3 year olds, she just turned 3 in December. She loves princesses and her big brother. Gunnar is 7 months already. Finally, another boy among all the girls. You would be so proud of all of them.

I know you’re up there looking down on us and I sure hope I’m still making you proud. I’d do anything to have you back for one more day. I know you are in a better place, pain free and I’m thankful for that. I love you so much and miss you so much more………….
