Nicholas' Touch: Happy Birthday Daddy

NICHOLAS WARREN REEVES

OUR SWEET ANGEL BABY

NOVEMBER 7, 2008

Dear Mommy and Daddy,

Before we said our first hello,

The time had already passed.

For when you held me in your arms,

I had gone to heaven to rest.

I felt angelic tears down my cheeks,

And I watched you as you wept.

I wish I could have changed it all,

Your tears touched my soul so deep

But mommy & daddy when you are sad,

Please be assured I know.

For death cannot take away your love,

It will only continue to grow.

When you are feeling far away,

And missing me so much.

Close your eyes and feel my wings,

Their soft and gentle touch.

Or at night as you sleep,

I will join you in a dream.

You will see me standing close to you.

And we’ll be lost within my wings.

So my dear mommy and daddy,

As you go from day to day,

Find comfort in the knowledge,

I am never that far away.

Happy Birthday Daddy

Dear Daddy,

I know it's your birthday today. I just want you to know how much I love you and how happy I was to watch you blow out your candles with Evan, Kyle and Maddie. I was there, beside you. My blow was that extra little one at the end.... Kind of like when it always seems to take you one extra time to blow out my special candle. That's me, telling you I'm around. I'm especially in your heart, Daddy. I love you very much and I'm very proud to be your son.

xo
Love,
Nicholas
