Daddy,
a day doesn't go by that i dont miss you, i need you now more than ever. i'm graduating this year it doesn't feel like 3 years.marco is now six and he is getting soo big.it pains me to know that when i graduate and i look out to the audience i wont see you there, but i know you would want to be there.veterans day was so hard for me i always thought that on that day i would walk you down the isle, when i heard the bugle i begged God to make all of this a dream.so much has changed, but the mark you left on me is still the way you left it. Ilove you soo much,i would give anything to see you the day i graduate, to hear you say the words I'm proud of you one more time. It's not fair that every other girl my age has someone like you by their side and they dont even realize it.your in my heart every single millisecond, i love you, and i miss you, i know you will be watching over us every moment.
