“20”
While trying to think of what
I would write to commemorate Madison’s 20th birthday I kept drawing
a blank. Then I realized that
wasn’t completely the case. The
number 20 is all I can think about.
Every time my mind goes to her birthday all I see and hear in my head is
the number 20 repeated over and over; not in years, just the number. In my minds eye its like watching
Sesame Street, “this thought is brought to you by the number 20.” There it is big and bold and colorful
in my head. I have a feeling that
is how she would have drawn it. No
doubt it would be colorful.
Madison loved drawing and
being creative. She loved color
and was always asking for new colorful pens and pencils to draw or write
with. I think in heaven she has an
endless supply of colors we cannot even fathom, to create many beautiful
scenes.
20, 20 years ago today I was
given a special gift that I could only be with for 16 years. I keep her always in my heart and on my
mind. So until we meet again Happy
Birthday my love!
