I woke up early this morning to the realization that today is going to be a very difficult day for me.
I think about you every day, and sometimes all day. I laugh, I cry, but I always try to end with a smile. Maybe about something that you said or did, or just the sounds you would make when you ate a good meal. Those memories never fade.
I know that you are at peace, and I think it is great that you have your father in heaven with you. Have a beer and catch up.
I am thinking about getting the truck out today and taking it for a spin. I know, the tags are expired, but there is nothing I can do about that right now, so I think I’ll take my chances. Both of the kids have a part of you in their necklaces, so maybe I will borrow you for a bit so you can ride along.
I miss you so much, but I am trying to stay strong because that is what you would be telling me to do.
So for you Dad, on this Fathers Day, I want you to know that if every child in America had a father like you, we would have a country filled with love, laughter, and strength. That is what you have always been to me, and will always be.
Happy Fathers Day Dad! I love you!
