To my sons Isaac Robert and Luke Alan:
Forgive me my sons, I did not know what pain and sorrows this world would bring. I was naive, and so did think, that everything would be fine for you and for me. But alas this was not true and God took you away to live in a house far from me. I could not grieve, I could not sorrow, the tears would not fall and I would not falter. Now time moves me forward and people move on but I still am not able to weep for you all. The love is there, it will always be, and I can never forget what hope you had put in me. Realize my sons that though these events took place they are not with out reason and they will have purpose in the end. So, although I move on, I shall not forget but continue to remember and grow from this. My boys so fragile, so tiny, so small it seems that it was not my arms you were to grow up in at all. Your true Father holds you now in a place I cannot yet follow. He will not leave you, he will not forsake you, he will be there for you forever in Love. And though my love is not as great as his, remember it is there and always shall be. I LOVE you my sons.
Daddy
There is a sadness in this world that can never be filled. It will remain in us until the Lord takes us to be with him. Remember the journey and never give up. It is doom to falter and so you must move on. This does not mean forget your past but rather to take what it is and let it push you forward and closer to Him. I am no saint and will never be but I am a believer and so these things I must proclaim. The journey is hard and will only get harder but relief will be yours if you do not falter. Pull yourself up and do not look back but rather tuck it away so you will always remember. The journey is a lesson not just a cruel test. It works towards a goal, though one you may not gather. This is not easy but I will not turn back or let it make me falter. Instead I will remember and take it with me on to the end.
