My daughter doesn’t like when I talk about myself in the past tense, but she’s not here right now.

Ralphie, my friend, I love you. You were a brother to me and you saw me through my lowest moments.

I feel an awakening in my heart when I’m around her and can’t imagine being without her.

“Today is going to be a big day for us, Autumn, I can feel it,” she whispered as she dressed me.

I am in the hospital bed and I am not in the hospital bed.

The top of the world. She wondered what was at the top of the world.

Her whole life felt like a deli counter where her number would never be called.

Summer meant everything to Sophia, except for having to hang out with boys all day every day.
