Last Friday night a bunch of us got together for dinner and spirits. Someone asked what our plans are for the weekend and I casually mentioned cleaning Madison's room to make room for the pool table, then pondering a hike up to the cross here in Simi Valley. Madison liked going there and I loved going with her. Every time we haggled whether it's a hike or a walk... pictures and about that conversation here.
Over the weekend the conversation about going to the cross spread, but on Sunday morning I finally conceded that I'm not yet up for toasting Madison's life with a group friends. Yet. They all went anyway, God bless them... I didn't know until I received the text message with pictures, and that's when the tears of joy flowed. The sunset was as beautiful as our friends... and I believe Madison was in it with them letting them know she's okay and in a beautiful place.
So Madison, I see backpacks... so it IS a hike to the cross, not a walk.
Love,
Dad
