She told me her name was Savannah.
I asked her if I could call her Savannah for short.
She kinda giggled and said sure.
She looked at me and smiled.… Continue

Suddenly things started coming to me. And as I was typing, tears started welling up in my eyes. My wife saw it and had to come over and see what I was typing. She knew this one would be special to me. After I finished it I emailed a copy to my daughter. She called me and told me it made her cry. I didn't know ho… Continue
