Ash, my love, I took a walk today through the trails with mom for you. Yes mom, you finally got her on a walk! It was so beautiful and warm and i could hear you nagging at me to get out if the house and enjoy the fresh air and trees. I regret now that i always complained every time you dragged me on a walk and even though you can’t push me physically anymore i will make sure to push myself for you. I looked through our old texts and found a picture of the sunset i sent you over the summer and you said how beautiful it was and that you couldn’t stop looking up. I’m going to be looking up for you always. You were my soul sister without a doubt and i will never be able to fill the void you left me but i promise to look at the world through your eyes and stop to smell the flowers. I love you baby girl and i promise to be there for papa and Jack and share all our crazy memories with him when he’s old enough. I’m sorry for the things i said to you before you went away, i was just scared this would happen and i wanted my ashley back. I know how you struggled and you gave it you’re all but i forgive you. I hope you found peace and I’ll never stop missing you. Love your forever sister <3

To my dearest Miss Ashley. As I sit here and write this letter to you the pain in my heart is unimaginable and the tears in my eyes are like a running river. You were robbed of a father at an early age but me and Papa always tried to fill that void in your life. I can still remember the happiest times from the Fourth of July parties in Travis at Nana and Aunt Flo’s house to the time you lived with me and Aunt Deana in Colonia. The time you lived with me with a very special time in my life. I know I used to track and hunt you down and follow you and your friends around but that was only because I wanted to protect you sweetheart. I could still remember your 8th grade dance at Colonia Middle School like it was yesterday. We had our ups and downs over the past few years but I want you to know my feelings for you never changed. I will always love you more than you could ever ever imagine and I will never forget you as long as I live. I only wish that me and Papa could’ve done more to protect you so that we wouldn’t have to feel this pain today. Please forgive me for the words that I said to you over the past couple weeks. It wasn’t because I didn’t love you it was because I wanted to protect your son the same way I tried to protect you. You are my dearest Miss Ashley and I will remember you until the day I die.
