Just another day?

That's what you always said about your birthday - "Just another day". But you know me ... it was never - and never will it be - "just another day"! 

I love you Sweetheart. and i miss you like crazy. 
i know you are happy - and will have a happy day. i wish we were together. i wish i could bake you a chocolate cake and we could laugh over the frosting. 

a thousand memories flood my heart and soul this morning. 
memories of all the years together ... the birthdays shared ... 
the Love of our hearts - our precious baby girl, born on your birthday. 

I love you Rick. Wait for me ... I love you - to infinity and beyond!!! i love you. 

God, our Father - please find a way to make sure Rick knows just how much he is loved and honored today. Please find the way to let him know how fine he is to me - still, after all the years, thru all the tears. 
And please dear God - find a way to wrap Your arms, and the arms of her daddy, around our baby girl today. Love her lavishly this day. Please.
