Dear Sara,
Most of all, I just want to hold you. I want to wrap my arms around you as I’m falling asleep and feel your warm skin pressed up against me. I want to smell the scent of your freshly shampooed and still damp hair.
Most of all, I just want to kiss you. I want to pull you in tight and feel your soft lips pressing against mine.
Most of all, I just want to hear you laugh. I want to see that smile spread across your face and the sparkle of joy in your eyes.
Most of all, I just want you to be near me. I want you to sit beside me on the sofa. I want to rest my hand or your knee, or my head in your lap, while we watch one of our favorite shows together.
Most of all, I just want to run my fingers through your hair.
Most of all, I want to look forward to coming home. I want you to be there to greet me as I walk in the door. To get to the door and open it up before I have time to fit my key into the lock.
Most of all, I just want to stand beside our little girl’s crib with you at my side. I want to marvel at her beauty and appreciate all of you that I see in her.
Most of all, I just want you back. I want things to be the way they were. I want things to be the way they were supposed to be. I want my eyes to dry out, and to not feel like I could burst out crying at any given moment, even when I feel in control.
I love you. I miss you. Give Miranda a kiss from daddy.
Love,
Chad
