Baby
I was at work when I got the call that you had died. I knew it was coming as soon as I was Mom's name on the caller ID. A light snow fell outside. I was planning to see you that night but you just couldn't hang on until I had a chance to say goodbye.

When I lifted the lid and saw you, it looked as if you'd just fallen asleep. I felt like my entire childhood had died. I wanted you to wake up and acknowledge me like you always did when I saw you. I wanted you to live forever. When you were here you brought me such joy. You befriended me when no one else would. I held you and sobbed and told you how much I loved you. Then I said what I always did when we parted ways: "Goodbye Baby. I love you. I'll see you later."

Thank you for never being judgmental. You were my best friend, my oldest friend. I'm in debt to you for your unconditional love... for everything. I will miss you terribly.
