Happy Father's Day! Someday.

Father's Day is another one of those days where I get sad that we do not have our baby here with us, yet. A day where I see that Charles is affected by these Empty Arms we have.

For you honey, 'A Look Into The Future'.

Someday, I’ll stand beside you, holding your hand, to let go of a life filled with love, and though you will be gone, I’ll always have the memories we’ve made together Daddy…

Someday, I’ll hold out my own child to you, and ask “Would you like to hold your grandchild, Daddy?” knowing that my children will forever be safe in your arms, just as I was in yours so long ago Daddy…

Someday, I’ll stand beside you, holding your hand, walking down the aisle to start my own life, my own family, with a man I love almost as much as I love you Daddy…

Someday, I’ll hold out my hand, and say “Daddy, please?” as I ask for the keys, to start my journey, to start a career, but I won’t forget to call Daddy…

Someday, I’ll stand beside you, but that doesn’t mean I agree with you, for we will fight, and you will probably win, and I may say things I don’t mean Daddy…

Someday, I’ll hold your hand, and wonder what this new school will be like, and you will reassure me that everything will be alright, and I’ll be glad you’re there with me Daddy…

Someday, I’ll stand beside you, although wobbly, and you’ll have to hold me up, for I have to learn how to walk on my own, but I still need you Daddy…

Someday, all these things might happen, but for now, you hold me tight, and I stare at your tear-filled eyes with my own new eyes, for today is my birth day, you and Mommy made me nine long months ago, and I’m finally here, and Daddy…

I love you so


Someday, honey. Someday, hopefully Someday in March 2010, we'll have our baby in our arms. Someday you'll be the best daddy! Someday, you'll give the best hugs and be the best role model. Someday, you'll laugh so hard you cry and wrestle until bed. Someday, you'll be the proud daddy who is showing off his bundle of joy to the world instead of being in the crowd smiling for someone elses' bundle of joy. Someday honey...
