Dear Daddy,
Let me first start off by saying how much I miss you. I miss you so much it can't even be put into words. Things aren't the same without you here. The two year anniversary of your passing was just a couple of days ago. I can't believe it's already been two years. Those two years went by so quick but feel so long without you.
It sucks not having you here with me. Whenever I get exciting news or do good on a test, I go to my contacts and look for your name. But then it hits me, no one will answer if I call. It will just ring and ring with no one ever picking up on the other side. Honestly, sometimes I forget that you're no longer with me and then when I remember it's like I lost you all over again.
I don't understand why you were taken from me so early and I probably never will. They say everything happens for a reason but I just can't possibly see what that reason could be.
Although you aren't physically here with me, I know that you're everywhere I go. I feel you in the wind when it blows, the sun when it shines, and whenever I see a yellow butterfly flutter by. You're watching over me from heaven and that in itself gives me so much peace.
I've gained the best guardian angel a girl could have.
Whenever I miss you I think back to the old days. I remember the countless nights we sat watching Shark Tank and Ancient Aliens together. Or the time I received my college acceptance letter and you hugged me and told me how proud you were of me. Or the way you used to always eat your cake in a bowl filled with milk. It's the little things that I'll cherish forever. And it's the little things that I will pass on to my children one day.
And finally, I want to tell you how much I love you and appreciate everything you had ever done for me. I know we got into our fights at times and it may have seemed like I didn't appreciate you but I promise you that I did. Every sacrifice you ever made for me is not forgotten. I love you so much daddy and if I could bring you back, I would in a heartbeat. But life doesn't work that way, unfortunately.
I'll always be your little alligator and your only little girl.
Love,
Your daughter that misses you very much
