Have you ever missed a loved one? I have.
Four years ago my father, Chad, was killed in a four-wheeler accident. He was a great man. Every day I think of him. How we would sit at the park and talk till five and play hide and go seek. He and I loved chocolate milk and banana bread. We would sit on the couch, watch TV while eating banana bread and drinking chocolate milk. When my sister was three and I was six, my dad would get off of work early and take us to a country road were there was hundreds of flowers. There was red, blue, yellow, green, pink, and orange flowers everywhere.
But for now I just think of him and what we would do.
When you are sad and all alone, think of a person that is ill or that has passed away. Think of the way they would hold you and love you. And remember its ok to cry! by Brooklyn
You are right--it's okay to cry! I cried when I read your writing today. You have such special memories of your dad. Never forget him!!

Dear Brooklyn,
I enjoyed reading about the wonderful memories you have of your of your dad. I'm sure he would be so proud of the fine young lady you are becoming.
God bless you!
