Once again, it's your birthday. Your 21st! Happy Birthday Ichi. I will always remember.
Whenever I see some people your age, I often wonder how you would have turned out, where you would have gone to school, who you would consider a friend, and who you would have trusted with your heart. A times, I see someone who could possibly look like you. I do a double-take then I remember.
It's been surreal since you died. I still tear up thinking if you especially in March, your b'day, and Christmas. Everything is not as bright or joyful.
I have kept your cell phone live just so I can hear your voice. Also so I do not forget.
Jasmine is now 16yo. She is taller than you and I'm sure she would love to 'rub it in'. Well, I'm on a plane again and they are telling me to turn off the phone. If you get a chance, send me a sign you're doing OK.
Love,
Dad
