Dad it's been a tough 5 1/2 months to this point. COVID has really messed things up for everyone. We've been shielding for most of it. It has given me even more time to think about all the things which have happened and which you've not been here to see. I know you are still looking down on us but it's just not the same. There's been so many times when I've just wanted to talk to you. I just really really miss you. Not a day goes by when I don't think about you.

Today is Katy's 22nd Birthday ... and Chris got engaged :-) I think you would love Jay and I can't believe where the years have gone with both Chris and Katy. It feels like only yesterday when I was baby sitting them both!!

I know Mum is struggling right now as she's had to go back to shielding again for 2 weeks leading up to her eye operation. We are here for her though if she needs anything. 

So I just wanted to check in with you again. To let you know I miss you and I really wish you were here so I could give you a big hug.
