Two years ago today.
It seems like it's been so much longer..
Sometimes I can barely remember your voice, your laugh, your face.
Something that really scares me.
There is so much that I long for you to be able to be here for!
So much that I wish you could teach me.
If I could only have one more day with you..
There is so much I wish I could tell you.
Who could possibly have needed you more than me, that they had to take you away?
Why then?
When we.. and I! Needed you more than anything?!
I only wish you could be here now.
There are so many things that my eyes have been opened up to,
So many things that I have learned, that I need to show you!
How fucking ignorant, and sheltered I was..
So ungrateful to what I had.
I see so much more life, and beauty in everything!
All I wish is to make you proud.
But you're not here to see it..
I am so sorry.
For everything I have ever said,
Or done.
I never meant a word.
If I had only known..
You are someone who I look up to with the highest respect,
And I am so proud to be able to have called you my father.
You are someone who I will always strive to be like.
You had so much wisdom, and love to share with everyone,
I know that if there is a heaven,
You will be welcomed in as an angel.
I love and miss you more than anything.
R.I.P.
May angels lead you in.

This brought tears to my eyes! I love you Elizabeth and Your Dad's memory will never die. He is always here with us, closer than you realize. He is here with you in your times of pain and in your times of joy. I'll send you the posting that I had written about my Dad on my blog. He wrote a really cool poem before he passed away that i put on there. Here is the link. You are in my prayers that your heart will be comforted. I love you! http://beckyprestwich.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html
I love you Elizabeth! You will see him again one day. I promise. He's watching over you right now! Love you.
