so I hung you up in my bathroom

I think of you everyday. 
Well, almost everyday..

I wonder how you think now.
What is your favorite music?
Do you still play the video games you did
when you lived with me?
Do you like being a big sister?

How is school? Do you like your classmates?
I notice you are wearing makeup now..
Do you still dress the way I taught you?
Are you thoughtful of how you treat other people?

Who is your best friend now?
Do you miss Jack and how he snuggled with you
at bedtime?

I have your face in my wallet,
three times to be exact.
I found a picture of you when I was cleaning,
so I hung you up in my bathroom on the mirror.

Do you think of me, too?
I miss you. 
I know I messed up,
things with me weren't going so well..
But I'm doing better now.

I wish I could show you my new car,
so you could revel in the cleanliness
and help me sticker it like we used to.

I love you, Isabella. 
You will always have a place in my home.
