I love you dad. We’re not perfect beings. We don’t always have all the answers. We’re not always equipped to ask the right questions. You used to tell me that people can’t give what they don’t have. I disagree, but I do believe it takes an extraordinary amount of support and love to get there. I wish that I could have been all of that for you. I’m relieved that you aren’t sick anymore, but I will always always always think I could have done so much more.
I remember when I told you I was pregnant with Amelia…you said to me “Are you sure you want to bring someone else into the world that you will love that much?” You were so serious. You knew the implications of letting your entire heart walk outside of your body in the form of your child. And I could sense a fear in you…for me. For all the hurt I, your daughter, could incur by extending my heart and soul so much more into this world. I know that came from a real place in you.
I’m going to take excellent care of you now.
Your home is here
Within my heart
