Today I will bring flowers to you instead of receiving them from you in 12 days. Little did I know, when I woke up a year ago this morning, what that evening would bring. What started out as a day of the normal daily chaos, turned into what was probably one of the scariest nights of my life. To say the last year has been a rollercoaster, with quite a few more 180 degree drops than any ride should have, is an understatement. But, through the moments of those pauses in between, I have been so incredibly grateful we found out a year ago tonight you were finally at peace. From day one, your life was one of difficulty and upheaval. You kept most of your real feelings inside. You kept a lot very close to your vest. There were times you hid those feelings from the world behind a wall of retreat or anger. But when you laughed, your smile lit up a room. When you loved, there was a warmth that very few could bring. When you were proud, we FELT your pride in our soul. When you loved, it left an indelible mark. When you wrote a card or a note, we knew it came from a place of deep love and pride. When I looked closely at your eyes, I could see so much more than you wanted to the world (and me) to know. There were a few times in my life you opened yourself up to me and shared your feelings without that wall of protection. There were a few times, you let the wounds show. But the one person you really let in, the one person who REALLY knew you, the one person who could see into your soul was Mom. As I got older, she provided insights into who you were, some of the things you saw in your lifetime, and how deeply your feelings went for so many reasons. I believe she was the only one with whom you have ever been truly completely open and vulnerable. You were a crazy love story that never should have worked. But you understood one another in a way no one else could. You trusted each other in a way you trusted no one else. A year ago tonight, we found out you and Mom were reunited. That brings me comfort. I know Grandma is so glad to have her baby boy with her again. That makes me smile. I know your pain is over. That brings me peace. I hope you are feeling the calm of a rest you so very much deserve. I hope you have finally found the peace that so greatly alluded you on Earth. You may not always have gotten it right, but I know you always tried your best and I know that even when the mistakes were great, you always had me in your heart. I love you Daddy!
