Happy Birthday daddy!💜
My second tattoo was for you. Ten long years without you wasn’t easy but I’m so happy you came into mine and my siblings lives you were an alive blessing! I miss you so much dad. It’s my first time doing this but I might start doing it to cope with some things. I’m to young to be stressing but I hope YOU are resting in peace and I hope your looking over me proudly and mom and bub’s and sis’s! ☮️ I love you, you was my big teddy bear! Forever and Always in my heart. When I see this tattoo it drives me to KEEP going down the path where I can even see my own progress I’m doing so good I’m school! I know you know that though, sometimes I feel like giving up but I have you and mom to make proud and a beautiful future ahead of me!❤️Anyways , Love Kelly Lynn
Hi Dad, it's been about 3 years since I've last wrote you, but I just wanna give you a little update on us, first off for starters a year ago we lost our home due to mom being the only one doing everything, and she moved a street over its always hard driving past there so I don't try to, all we have are the memories we've had there. Courtney had another little boy so that makes 3 for her she got married and has been through her hard times and is working on herself. She moved away and lives an hour away in her own house with Ava, Connor, and little Caiden they are all so amazing I wish you was here to see them all grow up. Jaylee just purchased his very first home and works hard for everything just like you did, he doesn't have babies yet but he will one day and he'll be an amazing dad just like you was you taught him a lot. Austin got MARRIED had a beautiful wedding on the beach and ended up having a little boy named Wesson he is absolutely amazing and so freaking cute. Austin busts his butt everyday and is becoming an amazing man, he misses you so much. Kelly is a Junior this year and only has a couple months left and them she'll be a SENIOR. And she finally got her license and is driving lol. She's doing good for the most part, has a mouth on her and could really use a foot up her ass bit she's good and getting big she'll be 19 this year. And now me, I ended up having two beautiful babies back to back I have a little boy named Brayden Michael, yes I gave him your name💜 I hope you are okay with that. He is going to to be 2 in June of this year and he is so smart and funny, and so handsome you would have loved his dad. He probably would of been your best friend and I have a gorgeous daughter named Gloria Mae, yes momma made me name her that I had no choice lol, but she is so beautiful and has an amazing smile, she would have been your butt plug. And guess what dad I got my very first home for my little family. I've been with this guy Derick for almost 7 years now and he is absolutely amazing and busts his ass everyday for us and I am just so happy with life right now. The only thing that sucks is you aren't here to witness all this happening. But we are all doing pretty good dad, I hope you're looking down and are proud of all of us. I love you so much and miss you more and more as each day goes by but I know you are having a blast up there. I will be checking in again soon. Love you so much Daddy.
Just wanted to say hello again, and say goodnight prayer. Dear Mike I hope you look over mom and protect her from all this pain and hurt life has brought us in the the last couple years, and hope mom finds hope and love and gets back on her feet and just loves us more than she already does. I miss you bunches and wish you were here cause things wouldn't be like this.I am getting a little better as time goes by I guess, trying to think positive about things, people are telling lies and it hurts but I know the real story and i hope things get better for us. Hope you doing good up there. love you so much and goodnight dad. Amen
I miss you, these past couple days have been so hard. I hate that we can't stay at the house. Seeing the house like it is would just break you're heart and that's what hurts the most. Me and Connor could of lost our lives that night. I can't stop seeing the flames and hearing the popping noise coming from the truck that was on fire. There was very bad people who did hurt us in a lot of ways. I can't get it out of my head dad, I can't forget it it just keeps replaying & replaying in my head. I just want it all to go away. I keep having scary dream of us not making it out alive please make them go away, I am just so happy baby Connor made it out alive and okay. God I miss you so much I just want to talk to you and hug you one last time. Please look over us and protect us expectantly mom she needs you.
Man It's almost Christmas Dad our 6th one without you! It's sucks so much, I am so stressed out, this week is finals week. I finally get my licences tomorrow, I'ma a little behind in school period but all that matters is I'm trying now and I going to walk off that stage with High School Diploma, hoping there's a smile on you're face. Mom's finally kinda getting back into the Christmas feeling, not all the way but getting there. It's crazy you've been gone almost 7 years in March, I'm still trying to ask that same question I've been asking deep down since I was 11, how is it me and my brothers and sister came from something so unstable to something that made us grow up to have so much love and care in our hearts, for it to just be taken from us, and you know what I am so rooting for one day my son or daughter to grow up knowing there is always going to be gold at the end of the rainbow, and know how good of a father you was and still are in my heart. I really wish you was here to help me through all the stressful things i go through in school, you was always good at that, you was so smart. I almost forgot I got a you a pretty cool Christmas Present, I got Buddy Lee cremated and put right next to you on the curio-cabinet. I hope you liked that, I think mom is getting us all necklaces for Christmas some we all can have a part of you, it's going to be cool and mom and kelly are taking you to Vegas and then to the Grand-cannon, how freaking cool! :D Well I love you so dad and I hope you're doing good up there, no more pain! Till then!<3
Hey dad it's Kayleigh, I just found this site, so I can write to you everyday and tell you how I am doing. I am doing really good, I have good grades and have a job that I like, still deciding what college I want to go to. You're grandbabies their getting so big, Ava is a year old and is so smart and she's got this real mean look that you use to give us all the time when you would play around with us lol, and Conner is 8 months he's crawling now, we are trying to teach him to furniture walk he's almost there. Jason is back home, doing really good for himself, has a great paying job and he's just like you dad, a spitin image it's crazy, he acts like you somethings make your imprecations it's a good thing though. Austin is also doing so good, also has a great job has a nice car and is living life dangerously, but that Austin for you. And Kelly we are working on her she's a teenager and of course out of control but what teenager isn't, but she's good, she makes decent grades and passing, all that matters. Then there's Courtney.. Mom misses you so much and wishes you were still here, she's sad a lot, and stressed out but she'll be okay she always is, she's known for picking herself right back up. It's mom she's always been strong. I love you dad and we miss you very much.!
