My dearest Little One; the person whom I loved most; the person who loved me most. You changed my life when you showed me what it felt like to be loved. I'll always remember the day we cried in each other's arms, when we became aware of just how important we were to each other. "How can you love me so much?", you asked. How could I not, my little monkey? Thank you for shining your goodness on me. You improved my life in an immeasurable and lasting way. You gave me so many gifts, my love; you made me so very happy. I promise you, my love, that I won't squander those gifts. But it's hard. It's hard to know that I won't see your loving eyes -- no one ever looked at me the way you did. It's hard to know that I won't hear your musical voice caressing me, calling me "my little Pumpkin", telling me that you love me, saying "mi amas vin". The hole that you have left is a permanent scar. Though you're always with me in my heart, the pain of losing you is ever-present, often overwhelming. Why did it have to end so soon, my beautiful Baby? I miss you terribly, my love. The world is so different now without you; that little safe place that you gave me is gone. A part of me is gone. You are my dearest Little One, the person whom I loved most, the person who loved me most. Mi amas vin.
