It's has been years since you left me. When you left, the days felt longer and nights felt lonelier. Overtime I adjusted, I knew you were in a better place. But sometimes there are still days that feel just as long and nights just as lonely. On those days I pray there was a stairway to heaven so I could just have five more minutes with you.

There is no stairway to heaven so I pray for a sign, a sign that will get me through the hardest of days. I know you are waiting for the right moment to send me one. I know when you do it’s going to fill the emptiness I sometimes feel inside when I am missing you and point me in the right direction. As I wait for that day, I will strive to be the woman you want me to become.

I hope to see you again soon because there are so many questions left unanswered, recipes left unshared, stories that haven’t been told and memories that still need to be made. I’ll be waiting for that sign.

See you again soon Pop, xoxo.
