Thank you for endless slices of German chocolate cake, and for proving that you really are never to old to jump on a trampoline.
Thank you for making Christmas magical, and for patiently letting my tiny hands remove and replace every single piece of silver tinsel my 6 year-old self could reach on your Christmas tree.
Thank you for proving that a smile really is the best accessory.
Thank you for teaching me how to climb trees, and for helping me hide the evidence of scraped knees and scuffed shoes.
Thank you for teaching me that love is selfless and can be given long after a person stops being able to receive it.
For these lessons, and so many more, I will always will be so thankful. Oh, how I will miss coming home to your hugs and our conversations spent holding hands and each other. Losing you will forever leave a hole in our family, one that we will do our best to fill with sweet memories and your legacy of love.
