I love you.  I love you sweetheart with everything thing that I am.  I love you.
You have never left my side.  I feel you as strong as the day you passed and the touch of your hands through my hair is at times overwhelming. You are with me in every step that I take, in every breath, and in every heart beat. I see you reflected in our children and in the home that we made together.  I hear your voice in the wind, the rain, and in  both planed and unplanned moments of silence.  You are simply everywhere.
Today is New Year's eve.  The beginning of a new year.  This new year promises to be full of love, travel and a new sense of awareness and self.  I will appreciate every season and take time to appreciate the joy of simply being.  I will smile more, laugh more and continue to dance in the rain.  
I will live for both of us and see the world through both blue and sea green eyes.  I promise I will not make the day of your passing my new reference point in time, nor will I walk a path of grief.  I will continue to tell your story as well as the story of us  This chapter of my life will reflect hope , joy, and adventure.  This year I will write my story and I promise it shall end as all good books  always do with the phrase  "and  they lived happily ever after."
I love you
Me
