My Ramblings

As I was looking through my computer today, I found this partially completed letter I wrote to Daniel just before he went into the Navy.  He was 19 years old then. How ironic that only 9 years later I am saying goodbye to him again until that great day when we are reunited again. I do not recall if I gave this to him. Probably not as it looks unfinished and is not signed. I post the letter here for your consideration: July 23, 2003 My Dear, One and Only, Beloved Son, This letter has been long in coming. I have begun it, in my mind, many, many times. It will take me a while to write it but I will finish before you leave. I already miss you and you have not even left yet. Time has gone by so very quickly. It was just yesterday you were 2 years old and we were wrestling on the bed. You were such a little squirt! Now, you are grown up and have become a man. I treasure the moments I remember when you were small; when you looked at me in awe and truly believed I was the greatest man
