Dear Charlie,

I am constantly visualizing your life with Leya at the Bridge, with much comfort in knowing that you now have the most wonderful sister especially born for each other, and both I and Leya's Mom couldn't be happier for you two.

And yet, that doesn't ease the pain of not having you by my side and not being able to share anything with you. Leya's Mom reminded me how you have taught me to be strong and that you would only want me standing tall and be strong. But, Charlie, I cannot even begin to think straight, it's too overwhelming.

As my Guardian Angel, I now realize that you saw it coming, protected me for eight years and tried to warn me of the ugly hurdle that was awaiting when you passed one week before the Christmas. You knew me so well, I was clueless, I have a habit of taking everything and everyone as their face value. No wonder I feel so safe with you guys.

The wind was blowing hard today and I was standing on the little porch that your beloved uncle built for us. It was one of the saddest moments, Charlie, I so wish you were here, you are the only one who could dry my tears.

All my love to you and Leya.

Mom
