The kid that wrote this is mine :)
Just a heads up this made me cry. If you know my son you know that he was writing stories from about 3 or 4 years old..this is what he wrote in his spare time in bed. No he is has never been traumatized and has more than his fair share of parents.
Letter to the Sky
Dear Mommy and Daddy,
I wanna write this letter, to tell you to come back. Grandpa said you went to Heaven, but I don’t know where that’s at.
Are you working late again; or on the other street? Or are you really far away, like way across the sea.
You’ve been away a while, we miss you really bad, grandpa always cry’s a lot, it makes me kinda sad.
Auntie comes here sometimes, when I’m feeling blue. She said the sky is that color, and that’s where you are too.
Remember when you tucked me in? On all those cozy nights? You said I was the most beautiful girl, and shined brighter than the lights.
I think about you all the time, with my teddy bear stuffed all tight. I wish you’re here when I go to bed, to kiss me a goodnight.
I tried to call you one time, on grandpa’s old, big cell. But the answering machine talked to me, so it didn’t work to well.
The tires flat on my tricycle, daddy you need to fix it. After that we’ll go to lunch, and we can share a biscuit!
Mommy, please come back, I need you here today. My tummy hurts, I don’t feel good, I need you right away.
Today I heard him cry again, grandpa cried and cried and cried. That’s why I need you to come back when I send this letter to the sky.
