My heart is breaking.
Our whole family’s heart is broken.
My heart, my soul, my love, my best friend and my children’s father. Ever since the first night I met you, you never wanted me to stop talking. (As crazy as that sounds) you straight up kept conversations FOR HOURS. We were together every single day that summer. No matter what or where, we were together. Even after we went our separate ways you were ALWAYS there. No matter what or when I came home, you were there greeting me waiting to see me. April 6, 2016 my life changed forever when you wanted me to stay in your life and you met Braxton and never wanted to let him go. I remember the first time Braxton actually called you “dada” we ain’t gonna lie, we were SCARED but YOU wanted to make him yours and you stood by him to the end. You watched him grow, you watched him get smart, and I got to watch you be a daddy. THEN you gave me the greatest gift, you gave me a child that looks just like YOU. His tippy toes and his laughs. His jokes and his faces, ARE ALL YOU. I’m so blessed you picked me to be his mommy and take care of him forever. I’ll forever thank you for making me have the family we always wanted. We were toxic yes, but we had more love for eachother than anyone could ever know and I’ll hold on to it forever. All my greatest memories are with you. I love you so much Christopher your our guardian angel that we’ll cherish forever. I love you so much my precious baby. Until we meet again. Your Baby Squirrel. <3
Chris ,
Your heart and soul was so pure, you were one of the greatest friends I had and I will never forget you. You always kept a smile on my face and made me laugh even when I was sad and them random FaceTime or phone calls I will miss them so much. I’m so grateful to have known you and to be able to call you my friend. You loved your family more than life that’s all you ever talked about. My heart breaks for everyone you left behind especially your little family that you adored.
