You know we miss you but I hope you are having a Happy Birthday in Heaven. I'm sure Carrie has made you one of her chocolate cakes with coolwhip icing. I can picture you with Gran and Grandpa and Uncle Robert & Aunt Margaret, Stephen, Mum's Mum and Dad are there too amongst so many friends.
Me and you had a little thing going for years. Some Saturdays when I would get my pocket money I would head down to the sweet shop and at times would buy you a Walnut Whip with part of my pocket money. I would come home and wait till you were up making some Coffee, then I would sneak in and put it on the table in the living room by the book or magazine you were reading. It was my way of telling you I loved you without words. When your Birthday came around and I didn't have much money of my own, I would try and at least buy you a walnut whip. It kind of became a joke after we got older and I would still do it from time to time. I loved that smile on your face when they would appear. I'm sure they have better things in Heaven but I'm sending one your way Dad.
