I want my daddy back!

I wrote this after my father passed (3 years this February). I just found it again, wanted to share it.



I want my Daddy back!

Today, February 7, 2008 was the saddest day of my life. Our wonderful husband, father, grandfather and great-grandfather of many years left our world.

Daddy walked right out of his body up to heaven through my tears to god. Daddy is no longer in pain and is now resting. The lord took that pain away when daddy took his last breath. I am very grateful for that, but I want my Daddy back.

My daddy took his last breath while I was sleeping in the other room. How I wanted to be there when he walked out of his body up to heaven, I want my daddy back.

While helping my mother care for my dad during his last days, I leaned in and whispered I love you daddy. He said I love you too honey. I want my daddy back!

My daddy lived with a horrible disease for two years and one month to the date.   People tell me he is no longer in pain and that he is in a better place, but my heart feels like it is breaking because I want my daddy back.

I will never get to see my daddy again. I can't pick up the phone to say hi daddy how was your day? I can't jump in the car to go visit him. I want my daddy back.

I have to wait until one day the lord and creator decides it's my turn to be able to visit my daddy.  Lord, please handle my daddy with tender loving care.  He is a very caring, selfless and loving man. He deserves the best!

I miss and love you very much Daddy! Rest in peace
Your Little Girl Forever,
