Dearest Gavin,
Happy birthday! I miss you.
I think of you often. Most of the time memories of you make me smile. Except when I think too hard about the fact that you are gone. Then I most definitely cry. Yes, I still cry. Not often but sometimes. Every once in a while a day will come along where I just lose it. Crying ensues. Uncontrollable crying because I worry that more people I love very much will pass away. I worry about this often.
The funny thing is laughter eventually takes place of crying. It sounds crazy but I get all cried out.
And then I remember fondly how you loved when I laughed and cried at the same time and I hope you are watching. Getting some amusement from my silliness. I know you are watching me sometimes. I Hope you watched me bake this cake today. I lit the candles and blew them out just for you. Happy birthday. You are loved.
Jane
