Dear Dad,



Mom put in the video collection from when you were little with your family. Man you were a cute little guy! I see Hammy and my little Austin when I watch those videos.
I keep thinking about all of your many talents. Dad you are so creative, talented and full of ideas I remember when we were remolding our house you always had ideas for us. And all of your businesses you wanted to do. I think I get that from you I'm always thinking of businesses to open up and little things to do on the side to make a little extra cash.
How’s that web cam coming?
I wonder what it's like where you are. When I think of where you are right now I hope it's beautiful like Alaska you always told me that was the most beautiful place you've ever been.
Josh was mowing the lawn on your mower yesterday and as he came around the pine tree for a min my hopes were up I thought as he passed the branches I would see you mowing the lawn. Josh has a lot of your manurisms(sp).It's so crazy that I see little things and think its dad! I just can't believe you’re not here!
Lizzy said “I miss him; he's an angel now" as she gave your pic hugs and kisses at bedtime. Do you come down here at bedtime with the kids? I swear I feel you. Does Heavenly Father give you all of the hugs and kisses we ask him to?
What do you do up there? Is it like a garden or clouds I always imagined it as clouds when I was little. You know like where the care bears live :) now I just don't know?
We all sure miss you down here. Nothing is the same without you. I'm so glad I have you as my dad! I miss you so much dad but I love you more!!
Love heather rose :)

Heather,
I am so glad I get to check up on you and your family through your blog. The words you write touch me so much. I think it is SUCH a good thing that you are letting your feelings and emotions out. I held a lot of pain and sorrow in when my mom died and I think that must be why I cry everytime you so much as mention your dad. I constantly wonder and think about the same things and miss her so much. Hope all is well for you and your cute family, have a good weekend!!

Heather you are amazing! I too, am crying because I am so touched by your words. My mom has been gone 7 years and it still kills me everyday. When I heard that your dad had passed I was actually at a friends house and I saw it on the news. My eyes instantly swelled up with tears and my heart went out to you and your family. I only wish we knew the answers as to why people we care so much for are taken away so soon. I wish more than anything in the world that my husband and kids could have gotten the chance to meet my Mom. What I'm so thankful for is that if I make the right choices down here then eventually when the time is right I will see her again and my kids will get to meet their Grandma. Hang in there Heather, you are so strong and give your mom a hug from me, I think she is an amazing women also and I loved having her as a teacher in YW.
