Missing you like crazy daddy. Two whole months have passed and I'm still in disbelief. I catch myself trying to call your number. So many small things throughout the day reminds me of you, some memories I cry and some I just laugh because that's what you would want for us to do. SMILE!!! Just like you would do. You kept us laughing. Just wanted to tell you I love and miss you so much. Keep watching over me and your grandbabies.
