Im having a really hard time today. Ive been having a hard time for the last year. I miss you. I cant deal with how much i miss you. The kids miss you. Damien was on a field trip and saw an exhibit on prosthetics and there was a leg and he said "Hey that looks like Uncles leg" lol. I figured u heard him and got a kick outta that.
Not a day goes by that I dont think about you. You know that though. Mom quit smoking. Almost 2 months now. I know your insanely proud of her. I am too.
I hope youre peaceful up there... I love you sooo much Uncle. Talk to you soon. ?
