Mark, we love and miss you so very much. Recently, I've been through our old home videos. The reverence you had for your young life and mine was so sweet. Your light was shining through. It was nice to see how bright your presence was again-- a light I begged would keep shining. This year, I got married without you physically present, but I know you still showed up as part of our special agreement. Friends stopped me immediately to show me how the sky had opened up for your light to shine through just as I began to speak. Thank you for doing everything you can to still show up for me. Year 2 is just as hard. Big moments are so tough without you. And in case I haven't thanked you enough in our physical lifetime: thank you for showing up for me fully at every chance that you got. Even though I will try, I know I will never have such an unconditional love again quite like ours. I feel both blessed and broken to have had and lost that. I love you. I miss you. Love, Mo.
