They can see it.

The way I move, how I talk, the smile that never leaves my face – I’m happy. And all of it is because of you.

I wouldn’t be sitting at the dining room table laughing with my family over a card game. I wouldn’t be smiling with my favorite lipstick on. I wouldn’t be creating these memories to cherish later on in my life.

I am happy because you took the time to invest in me and make sure that I know how much I am loved by you.

You’re not even here physically but your presence lingers in my mind as close as my star necklace is to my heart.

For that I will always be thankful.
