Dear Dom,
 
It's the 4th of July weekend.  This time last year we went to our house in the desert.  Remember, we bought fireworks and I did our family fireworks show in our backyard?  You and mummy were worried sometimes when I tried to re-light fireworks that failed.  Even our neighbors were looking over the fence to watch our fireworks.
 
I wish it was still last year when you were still with us.  Every day is hard without you.  But everything I see reminds me of you.  A kitty, a dog, birds, parks, swimming pool, McDonald's, anywhere.  It's comforting to know you enjoyed 7 years with us but sad and devastating that it was a short 7 years.
 
Mummy and I visited you at Good Shepherd today.  We put a pair of OLd Glory and some cones that you like.  I hope you saw us and were with us.  I try and look for signs that you're around or talking to us.
 
It'll be a very sad weekend.  All the families are going to have fun with family and friends. Mummy and I will try and watch movies to pass time.  Our neighbors in Huntington Beach will probably have a block party before each family watch fireworks on Sunday.  You and I went to the party 2 years ago and you played on the bouncy with a bunch of kids.
 
Everytime I think of you I feel a choke in my throat.  I do remember most of the happy times we had and I try to hold on to those memories.
 
I love you Dom and miss you so much,
Dad
