I want you to be the first to know… Love you forever and ever ….Shahrzad/ 10,10,10
I bought Shireen her first PEZ! I do not remember my first one, but I remember you buying them every now and then, especially when you wanted to make me happy. It was awesome going to Dr. Sami with you and buying one of the awesome treats on our way back home. What could be sweeter than spending time with you and having a PEZ in hand! Miss the good old days… Rest in Peace Pedar!

These days I take Shireen to school just like you used to take me to Poupak. She did not like it at first, but is getting used to it. I hope you are watching over her from up there. Miss you Bobi joonam

I saw you in a dream last night; I wish I could bring you to this so called “real world”, or I could stay in that dream forever. I sometimes wonder which one is better, being on earth and living life without you or staying in the unknown zone with you. I keep asking you to be present in my life hoping it does not disturb your peace on the other side; but then again I really wish to see you more often …
Missing you deeply :*

Pedaram...
Time passes us by and it is fragile, reminder of those numbered days at the end of your journey here. Yes I walked once more...it just felt so awkward without you. I wore the Jade Ring, and thanked you at the tribune, did you hear me? or watched me walked and be hooded on behalf of grads in our school...You probably did. I saw a Chrystal dew on the plant outside...Yes and Yes, Bobi! would you send some special request high up there, I am a bit tired of playing it tough...well, I resolved the issue with the building, resolving all the other stuff as I go, but if you send a word up there for me, it doesn't hurt....
Sure it is Father's Day, but you know it doesn't come with "Happy", you took that part with you when you left...Father's Day it is...
Sending you my unconditional everlasting affection....

Pedar, we have moved from Ohio! I wish you could pay us a visit here… It has been extremely difficult not having you in my life… I never thought I could get through the pain and suffering your departure has caused, but I am doing my best to keep on going until we meet again… There is no day that goes by that I do not think of you … miss you sooooo much….

Pedari,
Last week all the way through, missed you, missed you and missed you. There are so much that I wanted you to see, wanted to talk to you about and this difference between our time and place is just not helping. I always think what would you say if you see me doing what I do...what would your reaction be...I know there were so many times that I shocked you, I miss your eyebrows going up that high whenever I did something unexpected, and that by no means was a rarity...I am continuing to become better and shock people less, but I am sure, you just like me the way I am, with occasional wisdom on the side...
Need you tomorrow,
Mehrzad, April 28, 2010
بدون پدر چه کسی نارنجها رو به چرخش درآورد؟ چه کسی قطرهای آب رو از روی سیبهای قرمز پاک کرد؟... چه کسی از خاطرات کودکیش سخن گفت؟... چه کسی عیدی رو ازلای قرآن دراورد؟ چه کسی شیرینی های کوچولوی عید رو دور از چشم مادربا ما تقسیم کرد؟ کاش همیشه دررویاهای کودکی سر میکردیم و با پدر بودن رو پایانی نبود ... دلم تنگ تر از همیشه است وقتی که بهاری دیگر روبدون پدر تجربه میکنم .... شهرزاد بهار ۸۹
Pedaram:
سرسبز ترین بهار تقدیم تو بادi.e. The greenest spring be yours...Spring has come, but don't you ever think that we may have forgotten you in every important moment...just as our hearts were filled with laughter, our eyes gotten wet with hearing a song from your time...brought back all our great memories together...loved the smell of your remembrance in front of the Haft Seen setting...It smelled like hyacinths...

Bobi Joon,
You are not here to let us light the candles...not here to have your hearty laugh...not here to light the room with your presence...not here...but you are...here...and you will always be...so let us celebrate all the years that we had your presence...and all the years to come that you continue to warm our hearts....
Happy Birthday and miss you beyond words,
Mehrzad, Feb. 20, 2010
Pedaram,
Salaam...As Salehi says in his poem, "My letter to you should be short and simple, with no mention of vagueness or the future..." Yes, this is my first written words for you in 2010...the year has changed, we change with it, but you are our constant gardener. It is your February, and your Bdays, anniversaries and Narcissus...
Much love,
Mehrzad, Feb. 15, 2010
Pedar joonam,
February is coming up in couple of days. It was your month! Full of memories and celebrations! Madar is coming over on Sunday and I will have a surgery coming up on the 12th ; I know you’ll be there! Missing you so very much,
Shahrzad / January 29, 2010.
