How are you? Do you celebrate holidays there? Wish you all the best and happy 2021!
Year 2020 was tough but your Dad and I made through it. Three of us are so apart during this holiday seasons. I am in China cz your grandma had a hip-replacement surgery. I came to China to take care of her do the best I can.
The other day I found your wallet in a drawer. This Fossil wallet looks so familiar to me. It was probably from one of the shopping trips you and I went together. When I opened your wallet, when I saw your Express store credit card, Metrocard, GameStop in Springfield, Chase Business Card of the branch manager where you did your intern during the last two years of your high school...... my tears emerged from eyes. I miss you, David!!!
Life is different without you around. This is the 3rd holiday seasons since you went to Haven. I miss the time when you got up in Christmas Day to open your gifts. I miss the the gifts from you on my bd, on Valentine's, on Mather's day, on Christmas, and your famous words "the thoughts are most important" Thank you David for bringing in many happy Momerie to my life! Take care and happy 2021! One day we are going to meet again.
Love,
Mom
at the New Year's Eve of 2020

Today is your 35th BD. How are you in the heaven? Hope all is well and wish you are a happy 35th Birthday!
I miss you. The memory of your birth is still do vivid. It was a Sunday night, I was studying for my next day exam and planned to take off after Monday's exam. Shortly after I went to bed at midnight, my waterbag got broken。Your dad rushed me to the the hospital. I went through a lot of backpain and finally you were born in the afternoon. The nurse in the delivery room announced that It's a boy with elephant ears with exciting voices. Your dad came over and told that it's a healthy baby. I was exhausted but was so glad to see you. We named you David because we love it's meaning "be loved". Thank you for the good memories you brought to me and our family over the years.
Happy 35th Birthday!
Love,
Mom

Today is the 5th anniversary of your passing。 How are you in the heaven? Dad and I miss you very much and wish all is well with you!
Many things have happened during the past year. The biggest thing was that Dad had an open heart surgery. Dad has recovered well and started back to work in June.
I was backing and forth between taking care of your grandma and your Dad.
On this special day today, Dad took the afternoon off to join me for a memorial service。 According to Chinese culture, I cooked some food for you: fried labster noodle, mushroom tufu, asparagus。I made a flower basket with the flower cuttings from our balcony。We light up candles to memorize you and pray for you to be happy and healthy in the heaven. I hope that you had the opportunity to come over visiting us or watching us from the heaven。
Someday Dad and I were seated around the kitchen table, I had the fantasy that you came back and said "Mom", the voice sounded so familiar... I know we will have that day when three of us meet in the heaven again. Until then, you take good care!
Love,
Mom
