It's been a year now since Uncle Paul has passed away. He's been on my mind so much lately, and it makes me so sad to think that he won't meet my little angel when it is born. He was such an important person in my life, and I know that all I can do now is make sure our kids know who he is and what an amazing person he was to have in our family. I think there is still more to learn and experience from him even though he isn't with us any longer.
Times like now really make me think about how important family is. Even though our baby will grow up so far away from our family, I still want it to know how important family is and to feel the love our family has to offer. I've been pretty lucky to still have that even from so far away.
We love and miss you, Uncle Paul.
I understand exactly what you are going through. My Pop died less than a month before Corbin was born, and I cried so much knowing that he'd never get to meet her and she'd never meet him. I still think about him constantly and I miss him everyday.
