Mommy and Daddy i am in the sky with this guy called Jesus

He is very nice

I am in this white room and all of my teachers are here too.

Mommy and Daddy please do not cry

My teachers are going to take care of us like they did at school.

Mommy and Daddy please do not cry

i can still see remembered when Santa used to give me presents under the tree in our house.

Mommy and Daddy please do not cry

Jesus will be taking care of me like you guys did.

Mommy and Daddy please do not cry

I miss you guys.

Mommy and Daddy please do not cry

I will be waiting for you guys so we can be together as a family

I miss you guys.

Mommy and Daddy I miss you guys so much.

Mommy and daddy I got scared when I heard the gunshots

I started to cry.

Mommy and Daddy i miss you guys.
