Dear Dad,

Dear Dad,

I miss you so much it hurts. I am going through such an exciting time in my life at the moment which has allowed me to reflect on my own thoughts and emotions. Whilst I am super happy and grateful to be experiencing what I am, there is just a constant thought in the back of my head of ‘I wish I could tell my dad what’s happening.’ I’m sad I can’t share these moments with you. However, express so much gratitude and thanks to the moments we did experience together and how they have led me to where I am today.

It’s been 9 years since now since you died and for each day of those 9 years you have been in my thoughts whether that is a happy thought of remembering a memory or a sad thought where the grief of losing you feels to0 much.

You are the reason the stars shine so bright. An amazing man who was far too good for this world. Thank you for everything you taught me.

Love you forever.
