It’s been a year today, since you went home to be with our lord. How has it been a year but it feels like yesterday. We miss you now more than ever. Your sweet smile, your laughs and giggles. You cute waddle when you walked. Your temper and your love. The way you left an impression on everyone that you met. You loved people, animals, music, and art. We watched you as an 11 year and child full of innocence and curiosity take the news of your knee tumor and look to us for reassurance that you were going to be ok, we held your hand as you fought and cried and got sick but you kept smiling and pushing. We saw the joy as you were told that you were cancer free and got to live free again as a child should. We held you as we learned that the sickness came back in your lungs but we were still hopeful that we could beat it again. You kept fighting as we held you and we all believed that we could beat this. You kept smiling. And as we learned that we couldn’t beat it and held each other tighter than ever. Even when you started getting weaker, You still smiled. Even as the time came for you to leave us you still smiled. We love you so much. We still don’t know how to do this without you and even though we should rejoice that your with our lord and family in a place that is a million times better than this world, it still feels so unfair that you couldn’t be here to grow and experience things other kids get to. You will forever be in our hearts and dearly missed.
We love you Cara!
We will be with you in heaven someday. Until we meet again sweetheart 💜
