12 months without you, Dad 🤍
A whole year. It’s hard to believe, and while there are days that feel heavier than others, I think we’re doing pretty good 💛
We’ve laughed, cried, made memories, kept ourselves busy and continued to find the good in life. Just as you would have wanted us to. Because if there’s one thing you taught us, it’s that life is too short not to enjoy it, have a laugh and make the most of what we’ve got
We talk about you constantly. We tell your stories (some probably a little too often 😂), bring you up in conversations, listen to the songs you loved, laugh at the things you used to say and find little ways to keep you part of everything. We never want that to change. Your name will always be part of our conversations, your stories will never get old and your memory will never be something we shy away from 🥹
You were such a bubbly, funny, larger-than-life kind of person. You made people laugh, made people feel good and had a way of leaving your mark wherever you went. We want to keep a little bit of that everywhere we go
It’s a funny thing, learning to live without someone you thought would always be there. But we’re doing it. We’re finding happiness, making plans, having a laugh and taking life as it comes
We miss you more than words could ever explain, but we’re okay, Dad. And we’ll keep making sure your name is never far from the conversation 🍻
12 months, a lifetime of stories and a million reasons to keep smiling
We enjoyed custard tarts, mums famous cupcakes and b**r this afternoon with family in your name today xx
Love you always 💛💛
