I never thought I'd see the day.
When we realized you'd be taken away.
You held my hand, you stroked my hair.
You were the one that believed.
I am who I am because of you....
because of your beliefs, you ideas, and your commitment to me.
You made me a strong woman.
You gave me strength to believe in myself.
You are a man who is afraid of getting into heaven....
Raising three daughters gives you entrance.
Raising grandchildren gives you a straight pass.
I say how stubborn you are, and a friend's response shows I get it from you.
I say how much you love your family, and a friend's response shows I get it from you.
I was always your little girl....and I always will be. Cancer will not take that from us.
I love you Daddy.
Beautiful...

I love you too, big sister. We do know the same hurt and the same love. You put that into words beautifully.
