Bailey Sellers lost her father to cancer when she was just 16 years old. But before he passed away, Bailey’s dad did something to make sure he would always be there on her birthday for years to come.

She just celebrated her 21st birthday and she received a bouquet of birthday flowers from her father Michael–despite the fact that he died five years ago.

She explains that “before he died, he pre-paid flowers so I could receive them every year on my birthday. Well, this is my 21st birthday flowers and the last. Miss you so much, daddy.”

Dad’s letter read:
“Bailey, This is my last love letter to you until we meet again. I do not want you to shed another tear for me my baby girl for I am in a better place. You are and will always be the most precious jewel I was given. It is your 21st birthday and I want you to always respect your momma and stay true to yourself. Be happy and live life to the fullest. I will still be with you through every milestone, just look around and there I will be. I love you Boo Boo and Happy Birthday!!! Daddy”

“Every year I looked forward to my birthday because I felt like he was still here with me but this is the last year I get them so it’s so heart breaking,” she wrote on Twitter.
