I didn’t know what to expect from the short time we had beforehand exchanged with little Casey, who knew him.

We had such honest conversations and felt like we were touching on lighter and more serious topics, and I enjoyed getting to know him. As we left the restaurant I noticed snowflakes scattered around.
“Sleepless in Seattle” has a line explaining how Sam knows how his late wife knows. “It was… magical.” I’m not saying Casey one, but I would love to see him again.
