Stephen 25th December 2022

My darling Julie, It’s Christmas Day and I’m wondering how I am going to get through it without you. We all miss you so much and today especially and think of everything you did to make it so special. You loved to see everyone enjoying themselves and had great pleasure watching others opening presents whilst always leaving yours until last. Laura, Karen and James have been remembering all the best presents they received and the fun times they had as kids all thanks to you. It will be sad not having you here and for the first time being without your Mum and hope you are together once again and can relax without having to look after us all. I’m going to Karen’s for Christmas dinner which is the first time I can remember not being at home for it since the children were born and we stopped going to Mum and Dad’s. We are keeping up an old tradition though as everyone is coming here on Boxing Day and I’ve bought some extra presents for the grandchildren. We now have seven of course including our latest addition, baby Ned. I will be thinking of you every second of the day. All my love, Stephen ❤️
