Return

Returned home, little sweetheart, I’ve picked up the week’s worth of mail that was held while we were out visiting your folks and there was a wonderful card from your childhood friend, Liz.

Liz first got in touch with me two years ago, almost exactly when I got hit by the car. Indeed, I read her first emails to me from my hospital bed. In the time intervening she’s sent me some lovely missives - memories of you as little girls together, and illustrations she’s drawn of some of the stories.

Today, when I opened the envelope, there was a beautiful holiday card she’d made with a drawing of you and I on it! It’s based on a photo from our album Of Love and Loss. It’s just lovely and I have it here by the desk. What a wonderful thing to come home to - memories of you!

With all my love…
