Did I Remember To Tell You Daddy

Almost three years now Daddy since you were taken away I thank God you no longer suffer but I had so much more to say But you and I were always very close and I know that we still are So be free to enjoy family and friends I know you'll never be far Oh but Daddy Did I remember to thank you for coming to stay with the kids and I At times you thought you were a burden but if anyone was it was I And I want to tell you too Daddy that you would be so proud of them all Brandon's now a sergeant with a son on the way Cam Jeremy is due early fall And your little Sarah Daddy you would be so very proud She's a tiny little thing, still a great mom and has the best boys in any crowd And I'm sure you've been watching Curtis So you know he's just like you And he is living up to the promise he made Yes Daddy I'm very proud too Oh and one more thing before I lay down to rest Did I remember to tell you and the world that My Daddy's the best Loving you and missing you always Your baby girl
