After countless trips, saying goodbye to you has never gotten any easier. Your absence has been the heaviest weight I’ve ever had to carry. Yet, you have never imparted anything to us but warmth from your love and dedication. You face every obstacle with strength, wisdom, kindness and unwavering positivity. I could not have done this life without your support.
Today marks the first time in 17 years that we are all together as a family to celebrate your birthday in Thailand, your beloved home. The missing piece is filled and ours hearts are finally full. You are, and have always been, the backbone of our family and I am forever grateful for the sacrifices you have made.
I tell you I love you everyday but since today is your birthday, I want to celebrate you and thank you for all that you do. Nothing makes me happier than the time we spend together. Happy Birthday Daddy, Always your little girl
