Happy 1st Birthday in Heaven, my love.

Happy 1st Birthday in Heaven, my love.

Happy 1st Birthday in Heaven, my love. 

Two weeks ago, I kissed you goodbye—never imagining it would be the last time I’d see your handsome face on this side of eternity. I miss you every moment of every day. You were, and always will be, my greatest blessing.

On your birthday, we'll honor you the way we always did—at Texas Roadhouse, your favorite spot for birthdays and anniversaries. I will never forget your order, it's etched into my soul.

One day, we’ll be reunited in Heaven. Until then, I’ll keep loving you from here. My faith has carried me through these hardest days, and I trust God will guide me through the ones ahead. 


This picture is from your last birthday with me. At the time, I strongly disliked it because I was nursing a hematoma under my left eye—just weeks before our son’s wedding, But you told me I looked beautiful, even with my crooked smile. Now, I treasure this photo deeply because it perfectly captures how we celebrated your final birthday—together, in our favorite place. That moment reminds me of how deeply you loved me, and it still warms my heart today.

Love you forever, my sharp-dressed man. Tell daddy hello for me.

“The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.”
—Psalm 34:18
