I'm crying cos it's so sad not having you here. It's just hitting me that it's only a few weeks away, but you're not here. Christmas always brings up how much I love you. You're not here but I'm going to choose a snack for santa (aka you) and put it out Christmas eve. I'm gonna pick something really nice for you, I hope you like it.

I'm probably gonna talk to you here a few times over Christmas I hope that's ok.

I've been looking at this post for 20 minutes trying to think of something to say. I'm only a new Dad so I don't have many years of fatherly wisdom to offer, but I do know from personal experience that good dads are rare. So while you are sad and missing your dad around the holidays, I will be glad that you were able to have such a loving relationship worthy of being missed, in the time that you both had.

There is never enough time. I'm gonna go hug my daughter now. ❤️💚

She knows how much you love her, children just know these things. And this Christmas you're going to make lovely memories with her
