I can feel your big bear hugs and see your joyful smile over here, years later and miles away from the days spent growing up together.
To try and imagine our childhood without you feels seriously cloudy. You made everything more fun, a little bit louder, a little bit funnier. A hug from you - those kind where you wrap your entire arms around the lucky hug recipient and grab your own wrists as you hold on tight - made the worst days feel a little less alone, a little less cold and empty. I can see you laughing at your own jokes right now, or shuffling down the hallway between Logan and Luke, again laughing as you go, and that's all it takes to make me smile and giggle too, even all this time later.
Thank you & I love you.
