Dad, I cant believe its been 2 years since you left us. I miss you more with each passing day. Theres so many days I want to pick up the phone and call you, because theres something I need to tell you, but then I remember....if only heaven had a phone...

You would be so proud of the kids. Peyton is the starting pitcher and kenadie is playing 2 years up and she is the all star hitter on her softball team. Wyatt always asks us, why cant we go to papas house in heaven. Peyton and kenadie tell him stories about you often. I hope you are proud of us dad. I wish I had just 1 more day with you to tell you how much I loved you. I dont think you knew as I didnt tell you nearly enough. I hope your watching over us and I know your riding your Harley all over the roads in heaven! I miss you dad
