Daddy I'm missing you a lot recently. Can I have a hug?

Always, sorry I've missed your call. How are you these days?

I'm doing good daddy! I've been dealing with a really big child protection case and I've really helped the kids I've given them a chance in life. Are you proud of me?

Absolutely, bring it in.

For what it’s worth, I miss my dad, too. I find new things about him in me all the time, all these years later. I look a lot like him, and my kids look a lot like me, and like him by extension. I can’t talk to him anymore, but I can still see him if I look.

Love you lots daddy

I can give you an internet hug and I hope that takes just the tiniest bit of the longing away.

For what it's worth, it does ease a bit with time.

Of course champ. Never too old for one of those.
