a letter to Clif on Father's Day.

Dear Clif,
Wow. You're second official Father's Day. How does it feel? You don't have to answer that, because I already know. It hurts, huh?
Babe... I wish I could fix this, I wish I could make it right. I wish that Lilly was here for you, and that we could all celebrate you being a daddy together. But it's just you and me... and it's going to be hard celebrating. We've got to though! Lilly made you a daddy...and you should be SO PROUD to be her daddy. Even though she's not here.
Really I don't know what else to say, other than... I am praying for you as Father's Day weekend approaches. I am praying for you in two different ways. One - that God may comfort your heart during your first Father's Day with out our Lillian Joy. Two - that God may comfort your heart as you spend yet another Father's Day without your own father.
I love you Honey, and I am so proud to say that you are the father of my Baby Girl, our angel.

With Love,
Des

PS~ I promise to try with everything that I am to see that your arms are not empty next June.

Beautiful. I have a similar posting for Sunday. It's so hard for them I know...and they often don't have the support we do.

Praying for your arms to not be empty next June either!!
