Teddy,
What is there to say to the son that I got very little time to be with? Well... I know that at this point you are about 14, and from what I can see of you, you are very put out with your father and I at the moment.
I know what it is like to loose a dad. I do. I lost your granddad about a month or two before you were born, hence why you are named after him. I know that I got a lot more time to spend with your granddad than you did with either your father or I, but the feelings are the same.
I know what you must be thinking: These are just the ramblings of a woman that you never got to know because she had to go fight in that blasted war, but hear me out Teddy.
Your father and I love you very much, and the reason we went to the battle is because we wanted to protect you. I know that we lost our lives fighting, but remember what you have because of it. You have a godfather that has a love for you that is stronger than anything in the world, and you have a grandmum that is harder than steel.
Teddy, your father and I love you very much and we never want you to forget that. We will watch you grow up here, and someday, you will come join us at King's Cross, but only after greeting Death like an old friend. We love you dearly,
Mum
