View all 271 ReflectionsHey dad. Another year down. My daughter turned 1 this year. Her name is Lilith and I just know you’d love this spunky punk. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve sat here thinking about the times we watched rescue heroes and played with the action figures I had. Anyways, I love you old man and I’d do anything to see you again. I hope to be half the man you were some day.
