Jack's finally enjoying the Sun


Hey Buddy
Earlier today I got an idea in my head and tonight after supper I decided to bring up with your Momma and see what she thought. It was such a beautiful day out today and as you already know (I know you have been listening to us) your Momma and I were wanting to take you (Your ashes) out to a special place and sit and talk to you about it (The place) and then see if you liked it and then let you hang out there and experience the sun and rain and trees and rocks, everything that nature has to offer. Your Momma said that was a great idea, so we hopped in the car (Yes we were careful) and drove out to a beautiful place, out at the park were the Mariposa Folk Festival is held every year. We walked along, then we came upon the spot that we both knew would be perfect, the sun was shining exactly at the point we you were released. I took some of you (I know that sounds weird buddy but that's what I did) in my hand and I talked a little about you and how much I loved you and how special you were (because you were) and then I just tossed you into the water,then you Momma blew into the wind a dandelion (Actually when it's all white and fluffy it's called a dandelion clock)and it was beautiful, you shone in the sunlight and I knew that you were going to have a good time there. Then it was your Mommas turn, she took some of you in the palm of her hand and said how much she loved you and also how special you were and that she hoped you would dance in the water and sunlight, because as you already know your her Mr.Twinkle Toes, then she tossed you into the water and sunlight, then she blew the other 2 dandelion clock's and made a wish (I didn't ask what she wished and she didn't tell me, I think mabey it was between a Mother and her Son). We then just stood there and looked out into the water and talked about you and how much better we both felt knowing that you were outside enjoying the sun. I took a picture of the place were you play so everyone knows what it looks like. You are the most special guy in the whole wide world, and both your Momma and I hope that one day we can take your little brother or sister out there and they can see were there big brother Jack hangs out.

Love you forever Buddy

Dad
