Dear Chris,

I know memories aren't the same as having you here with me but they can brighten up what sometimes is a dreary day.

The last couple of days, as I watched your nephews splashing around in the bathtub, a lot of pleasant memories flooded my mind. I found myself laughing and actually feeling good inside. You know where I'm going with these thoughts. There is one specific incident that came to my mind - the tape we have of you and Heather in the tub shortly after we moved here. I'm going to find that tape this week and play it. I think little Christopher will get a kick out of it.

It saddens me that your nephews will never know you personally. Sometimes I can picture you rolling on the floor with them and acting goofy. You would've loved them and they would've adored you. All I can give them are the memories I have but I know one day they will get to meet their Uncle Chris and be with him for eternity.

I'm missing you son - so very much!

Love Always,

Mom
