This killed me with it's poignancy: "She - she's with daddy. See your daddy there? They - they had to go away y'see because um…well, they just did. But they're somewhere - nice. I refuse to say the word heaven kid, but they're somewhere really nice. They love you. We love you."
"Love Pads."
Lovely, as usual, and it is good to see Sirius emerging from such darkness.
Still, this was so heart-breaking: "He used to love me," Sirius says sadly, and Remus can't breathe for a moment. “That’s what he’s saying in that picture, that he loves me.” There's silence for a moment before Sirius continues, "We used to love each other so much. And then, mate, Uncle Sirius did something really stupid. I do that a lot, you'll see.”

I'm glad Remus got to hear him, though.
