Friday 6th November was Milly’s birthday, her 6th birthday spent in Heaven…
Happy Heavenly 17th Birthday my beautiful Milly, I miss you more and more each and every day:
I miss waking up and seeing you dressed, ready for school…
I miss you in the car singing along to the radio pretending you know the words…
I miss brushing and plaiting your hair…
I miss sitting at the table eating tea and finding you have pinched my slippers…
I miss you trying to put your hands round my neck because you know I don’t like it…
I miss seeing you skip out of school…
I miss your hugs, I miss your kisses (oh how I miss them)…
I miss watching your swimming lessons…
I miss washing and ironing your clothes…
I miss seeing your face at your bedroom window waiting for me to get home from work…
I miss tucking you up in bed, I miss you asking me to say a good dream spell to stop you having nightmares…
I miss your laugh, your infectious giggle…
I miss your beautiful face, your spellbinding smile…
I miss life with you…
I miss the life we were meant to have…
The “what-ifs” are so strong everyday. I wonder what your interests would be. I wonder if you would have any new passions. I wonder what your plans would be for your birthday and who you would choose to spend it with. I wonder how much more beautiful you would be, if that would even be possible.
Have a lovely birthday in heaven with the angels and always know that..
“I will carry you,
Here and there,
There and here,
Until I am where you are.”
