Time

As time passes us every day, we get older and wiser. We sometimes lose color in our skin or hair, our strength, get wrinkles and our ability to do many of everyday task. Sometimes we lose love ones along the way. April is not a good time for my family. I have lost two of the greatest people in my life that meant so much to me. Tomorrow(April 4th) is my Aunt Rachel's Birthday. She is very missed. As the days pass on this day, I wish that I would of stopped time or visit the time before she passed. To spend countless holidays and birthdays. To hug her, feel her warmth, to be devoured by her positive energy and wisdom, but most of all, to see her beautiful smile and personality. She has been the aunt that I have loved like a second mother. The aunt I would also beg my mother to allow me to visit over the summer. The one i could talk to about anything. The aunt who would make time for my life. The one that was involved with enjoying life. That aunt that i truly truly truly miss. So Aunt Rachel, I wish you a Happy Birthday and you are missed and I love you always!

Your nephew,
