Happy 24th Birthday!

My Dearest Andy,

I can't let your birthday go by without including you in my blog.  10/10/88 - the best day of my life!!! I hope you had the most wonderful party in heaven. Do they eat angel food cake there? I know, dumb joke, I can see you rolling your eyes. Remember when I used to embarrass you in the car by dancing in my seat at red lights? Haha! I love you so much honey and miss you still. But I take great comfort knowing you are in such a wonderful place, living in peace and happiness.  Thank you for looking out for me. I love knowing I have an angel watching over me  ^i^    We are having a little get-together Saturday night to celebrate your life and the joy you brought to us. Look for the lighted balloons!! I know you will be there <3

I'm just remembering your precious little face when you were young and the handsome young man you grew up to be. I was and still am so proud of you. You were a beautiful person to whom life was not always kind. I know it was hard for you to be a sensitive soul in this world. I want you to know that you left a beautiful legacy...so many love you, miss you, and strive to honor you every day. As for me, you brought me the most wonderful, happy days of my life. And now, I have one favor to ask...be supremely, completely, ridiculously happy until we meet again. If you are happy, I am happy...or maybe more aptly, "You smile, I smile"  :-)  Love you Bean!
