It has taken me such a long time to believe that you have gone. Maybe its just denial as the pain is just too much to bear, as it was only 13 months to the day, that we said goodbye to Jesse (your mother) and losing her ripped dad and my hearts out. You too, struggled without Jesse so we got you Texas to play with and boy did he give you heaps.

You shared so many special things in our lives, but what I love and miss about you the most is when you’d sit up on a chair, when your lip curled up above your teeth, sleeping at myfeet, letting me paint your nails, wearing your princess t-shirts and your gentle lovingnature, you were such a good girl.

On your final day, I asked you to come back as a white butterfly and watch over us with Jesse. It was hard to hold you and watch you go to sleep, I thought that my heart would explode, but I knew that Jesse would be waiting for you to go play with her at the beach. When we got home I went to check the mail with Texas and saw the yellow rose you left for me near the letterbox, but then I got the biggest sign was 7days later when I was in Japan, I was so worried about leaving Texas as he missed his big sister so much, then sitting on the bar was a bottle of bourbon that read “The Yellow Rose of Texas”

I knew then everything was going to be ok..

Since then we have asked for you and Jesse for guidance and still your souls continue to touch our lives. When Sophie (Texas’s biological mum) came into our lives, she reminds us so much of Jesse and you, she is so funny, cute and full of love and Texas loves her so very much.

I know your spirit will live on forever, no one will ever take your place and I will always see you dancing in the garden as a white butterfly.

Love you princess!!
