Today would have been your 76th birthday, Papa but you were taken from us all too soon. We miss you and want to share with you moments of joy and excitement in our daily lives but it was not meant to be. So much has happened since you left this earth and I think of you often; in my heart, I know you are looking down on us and keeping watch over us.
S1 is nearing the end of her uni days and looking forward to working while S2 is in college now, hard to believe I know. The best thing is both are studying engineering, something which you did when you were at uni, and something which you never had the chance to complete. I guess the grandchildren will carry on your dreams and your legacy of a mathematical mind. S2 just passed his driving test - second time round as he had failed his road test due to over-steering - hard to imagine him driving around but they all grow up too fast, too soon.
Before long, he will leave the nest leaving an empty, hollow space in our hearts as he moves on to make a life for himself, just like his sister. He dreams of going to where his sister is, something we want for him too.
We miss you and hope you are enjoying yourself up there, Papa!
Much love from us.
