Dear Charlie,
As I do everyday ever since you've been gone, I so missed you at today's dinner. Happy Thanksgiving, my golden boy. I was hoping and was sure that you were with us in spirit and Leya with her loving mom.
Heaven knows how much I love and miss you. Sometimes, I tell myself that you are right here next to me, watching me with those beautiful golden eyes. And, I did so today while I was giving ham dinner to Bud and Duke. I remember how much you loved ham, so I had to muster all my courage to get the ham for your brothers because, just because I never know what will happen tomorrow.
You had to leave for the Bridge so suddenly, it was the toughest and saddest, left me with many regrets and sorrow; it will only be eased when we all, one day, meet again.
As I do every night, I wish you were here, because I still have so much love I want to give you.
Sweet dreams, my beautiful boy...
Love,
Mom
