Equivalent day

Today is the equivalent day. Never mind the actual date. This is Thursday. This is the night of the Pep Rally where they prayed for you two years ago. Last night was Wednesday night (obviously). Our dinner at Sonic. So glad it was just the 4 of us-quiet and peaceful. Like I told K in a text last night, we had no idea how much our lives would change in the next 12 hours.

I've seen lots of signs from you. It started yesterday when "Carry On" came on in the car. You've sent me lots of songs today-Forever Young, Come Thou Fount, In This Life, You Make My Dreams, Remember Me ("Remember, when your dreams have ended, time can be transcended").

Today on a business policy I was billing, I saw the phrase which I have never noticed before on any other policy: "Premium shown is payable at inception." We both know the significance of that word.

K sent me a quote he thought of. He was going to wait until the 20th/21st but decided to send it to me now: "Hayden is wrapped around your heart and he's there soothing and comforting you with every beat." How beautiful is that? Oh my gosh! I woke up to that. What a nice thing to wake up to, especially compared to the text I woke up to last Thursday Up North (I know-have to elaborate).

Anyway, I love you, and I miss you more than words can say. I wish you were here but I know you don't. You are home and I will see you when I get there. You just went on ahead. Thanks for being the best son ever (along with Carter). Always stay close to me. Thank you for improving my life while you were and for continuing to improve it. I know you brought K to me. I know you caused Dad to realize what he has done to me. Thank you! Love you!
