Happy Birthday, Dad!


Today is my Dad's birthday. He would have been 64. But instead of celebrating with him, all I can do is celebrate having had him in my life for as long as I did. It truly is a miracle my Dad made it to 58, so I shouldn't be greedy and wish that he had made it even longer. But I am greedy and I do wish it.

My Dad is one of my heroes. He was imperfect, but so good. And he loved his God, his wife and his children and grandchildren with everything he had in him. If all men were like my Dad, the world would be a much better place. And he would agree wholeheartedly with me that if all women were like my Mom, we would have heaven here on earth. I am so grateful for my parents. Look at them. Aren't they adorable?
