Hi Dad!
Last July we went camping during the time I was supposed to be with you. We had a great time and thought about you constantly! My heart was so broken because I wasn't with you, but I tried to find joy in the experience I was having with those that were with me. You found many little ways to show me that you were indeed still there with us. The blackberry bushes were one way you showed me you were there. I had never even seen blackberry bushes at the bridge before, but there they were! And so easy to reach! Thank you Dad! I love you!
Love,
Mary Ann

"We are having fun camping! I even have some busted up knees to prove it! lol Yesterday we went to Tonto Natural Bridge and I slipped pretty bad on some wet rocks We really did have a great time though!! We even found some blackberry bushes with as many berries as you could eat on them! I think my Dad showed us those He would have been taking me blackberry picking right about now if he were still here. He always got right in the bush to get the best berries for me and always reached the high ones for me. He never cared that he was getting stuck countless times. He would always do anything he could to bring a smile to his kids' faces! He was the best dad!!!! Today he has been gone one month!!! I miss him so much!!! Oh and an awesome thing about yesterday's blackberry bushes, they were short and you could walk around them! It was like my Dad said, "Since I can't be there to pick the berries for you, here's some easy to reach ones so you won't get stuck!" I told you he was the best Dad ever!!! Here's a picture of those knees for those of you who want a visual on what I was talking about "
