I want to bake you a cake and make your favorite dinner.
I want to hug you and hold you and give you 8 birthday kisses.
I want to see how you've grown.
I want to watch you open the perfect present and see your face light up.
I want to see your smile and hear your laugh.
I know that you are having a better party than I could ever throw you.
I know that the gifts you have bring you much more happiness than anything I could ever offer.
I want you to have a happy birthday and most of all to know how much Mommy and Daddy love you.
I miss you so much.
