I miss you tonight, more than I've missed you in a long time. And I'm not sure why. I wish I knew. But I don't.
I keep thinking about it, and I want to say goodbye. I want to tell you everything being housed in my heart. I want to know if you're proud of me. I want to know what you think about everything.
I miss hearing your voice. I miss seeing your face. I miss everything about you. I miss the way kids would steal your kite/toy when we went to the park.
I miss everything about you.
And I wish I could see you one last time, like you were. You were the biggest kid I've ever known. And I loved that.
I used to be a fish, that you'd reel in.
You were so fun to be around. And I miss that.
The bottom line is, I MISS you. And I miss you MORE with every passing month, week, day, hour minute.

This is my dad, on the floor. Playing Rock 'Em Sock 'Em Robots, with my older brother. This is my dad. It's how he's been for as long as I knew him...He would've done this instead of work. And that's probably the best thing about him.
