Dear Caitlin,
Today was another day of reflection and healing. Toby and I visited the beach, the place where we spent so many happy days together. I remember how you loved the ocean, how the sound of the waves brought you peace. I wanted to feel that connection again, to be close to you in a place that held so many memories.
Toby seemed to sense the significance of the place. He ran along the shore, barking at the waves, his joy infectious. Watching him, I could almost hear your laughter, see your smile. It was a bittersweet moment, filled with both happiness and sorrow. I miss you so much, Caitlin, but having Toby here has brought a small measure of peace to my heart.
We sat on the sand, and I talked to Toby about you, about the times we spent at the beach. I told him about how you would collect seashells, your eyes lighting up with excitement whenever you found a particularly beautiful one. I shared how we would sit together, watching the sunset, feeling the warmth of the sun on our skin. Those were some of our happiest moments, and it felt good to remember them, to keep a part of you alive.
Toby's presence has brought a sense of normalcy back into my life. He's become a source of joy and comfort, his unconditional love a balm to my wounded heart. When I wake up in the morning, he's there, ready to start the day with his boundless energy. He makes me laugh with his playful antics, and his companionship is a constant reminder that I'm not alone.
The nights are still the hardest, Caitlin. The emptiness is overwhelming at times, and I miss you more than words can say. But having Toby here makes it a bit more bearable. He sleeps beside me, offering his silent support. I talk to him about you, about the love we shared, and it feels like he understands. His presence doesn't erase the pain, but it helps me cope, one day at a time.
I love you so much, Caitlin. I miss you every moment of every day. I hope you can see how Toby is helping me, how he's become a beacon of light in my darkest moments. I'll keep writing to you, sharing my days, my thoughts, my love. Forever in my heart, Caitlin.
Yours always,
Davin
