Your son has missed you as he went from a new teen to a young man who needs your guidance.
The girls need their daddy. Your wife confides your grief, even in her new marriage. It's different... it's not the husband of her youth. Her cup was so full of you.. your joy, your wonderful life together. The new husband gets his own cup to fill, life moves on, but Lord knows, we all miss you.
