I can imagine the delight in your eyes, the joy in your smile if you were in our presence now. To see the two young boys who brought sunshine to your rainy days, the grown men that they are today. I know you would have been proud.
I can imagine your sorrows vanquished as I hear you calling out the name of your great grandchild as you hold him so lovingly in your arms, cherishing every tender moment.
Times that I know you treasure is when thoughts of you cross my mind; thoughts filled with both sadness and longing.
I am sorry. I failed to see you needed me as much as I needed you.
