Im sorry i didnt realize what was happening until it was too late. I shouldve realized it was happening the first time you attempted and we went to visit you in the hospital. I guess that field trip to springbrook that day was more important to me then, i didnt even think about you doing that again. I will always remember the day 9/21/2017. Its almost 3 years now. I dont know how you did it, but i miss you and love you. See you when i get there too.
