I Miss My Dad

Hi Daddy, I'm writing again. It's been 5 months since you've been gone. I have mostly good days now, none like before when you first left us. That doesn't mean I miss you any less. I think of you often, every day, sometimes several times a day I stop and think about when you were still here. I just miss having you to talk to. I miss having to worry about you and do things for you. Every time I go to the grocery store, I wish you were with me. Even though you always took longer than I, it didn't matter because I thought it was cute when I'd see you and you were checking out the back of a box of something...taking your time. It would just make me laugh. I miss our talks and even our arguments. I know that you are the one who is helping me through this. I know it is you making me strong and I want to thank you.
I want you to know that I am doing well. I'm overall pretty happy right now. Nothing much has changed, my life is mostly the same. Except I think James and I are closer now. We had some time apart, which I don't want to talk about, but we're together and I'm happy about that. He makes me happy and he's very important to me. I only hope it continues to get better. I know how much you liked him.
I'm a little worried about Michael, Dad. I know we're all missing you so much, but I worry about Michael the most because he is only 13 and because you were his best friend. Also, Nano needs surgery and Michael is so close to him and I hope and pray that Nano pulls through the surgery with flying colors. I don't know what it would do to Michael to lose both of you in one year. I think it would affect him so much that he would not be the same sweet boy he is now. I worry he will get a bad influence and he will get into trouble. He seems to get angry a lot easier than before. I don't know if it's because of you leaving, or if it's his age, but I worry a lot about him.
Jayme is doing well. She is applying to UF this month and she is so excited. She wrote her essay about you, Dad. It was so emotional to hear her read it to me. I never realized her point of view of the whole situation -- you getting sick and all. She loves you very much and you should be so proud of her. She is a wonderful young woman who is going to do something extraordinary with her life.
Mom and I are closer now, and I know that pleases you. She has been really wonderful. I know you getting sick brought us together again.
Jimmy and Danielle are fine. They're having a little girl, and hopefully naming her Sidney. She will be your first grandchild. I only wish you would have known she was pregnant. I wish they would have told you. I would love to see your face when you found out.
Well, Dad..I've gotta get to school now. I miss you so much. I love you more than anything in this whole world. I'm everything I am because you loved me.
Love, Number 1
