It’s so hard to believe it has been 3 years since you left us, it seems so much longer. We still miss you every day, your sly smile, humor and personality. I hope you know how much you have changed each of us and what an impact you made on so many lives in such a short lifetime.

Many things have stayed the same while others are changing. Mom is doing well, staying healthy and missing you as much as me. Your sisters are getting ready to end their time in high school. Abbey will be going off to college to learn how to teach other children with special needs, you have inspired her along with all the wonderful teachers you have had. Jessie is going to learn how to be a forensic investigator, to solve crimes and bring justice to victims and protect others. I know you are also a big influence on her too. Jonny is starting his last year of school, we are not sure what is next but we are ready for any changes that need to come. Morse still thinks he’s a puppy and misses you the most, he has lost some weight since you are no longer around to give them those extra meals when he asked you to.

I wish I could forget all the pain you had to go through so I could just remember the good times we had together, I’m working on it. My video for you this year is of the first 3 years of your life, happy times when you were having fun and at your best.

I so look forward to seeing you again some day and having my little buddy at my side, or should I say wrapped back around your little finger.

We all love you bunches and bunches.
