I see your blue, translucent eyes and gorgeous smile every day. I keep your gentle demeanor, kindness and wit with me always. You were the most happy, bubbly and funny child I have ever had the pleasure of loving. I must keep your spirit and beautiful face, broad shoulders and sweet curly hair ever present. I pray we meet in God's love. All my love forever and ever, your Anni
