7 years ago...

Almost 7 years to the date, was the last time I saw my precious Stephen. We woke up early that morning and I took him to the airport where we said our goodbyes. We held each other tight and little did I know, our last kiss. I watched him walk away, proud to serve his country.
I miss him so much. I still think about him every day. As I type these words my eyes well up with tears and my heart aches. Music has always been a "healing" influence for me. There are so many songs that help me through these moments... there is one I want to share with all of you.

Stephen... I love you and miss you so much. Not a day goes by that I don't think of you and wish to hold you in my arms again. I hold on to the joy and hope that I will see you that "one sweet day". Heaven was needing a hero... and God chose you.
