Remembering Dad











On March 15th we all got together to remember my dad. We went to JB's for hot fudge sundaes, One of Dad's favorite things, then we went to the cemetary. Everyone wrote a letter to him on a balloon and we let them all go to "heaven!" I can't believe that two years ago we told him we loved him for the last time. We miss him so much. I don't think it will ever not feel so raw when I think of him, little things, like how I loved the way he used to call me "cupcake" when he was frustrated with me, he would make his voice so soft and in control but I knew he just wanted to beat me ....I miss that! We always talk about Dad, we keep him a part of everything we do. Our family will always have a huge hole in it without him, and I can't wait until the day that we will all be together again. My Dad is truly my Hero and I know he is with us always. I miss you so much dad, and I love you.

I love that pic of Dad and Asht and the one of Ali and him fishing! She looks so little and cute. I wish I had more pictures of him healthy with Ramsey. I miss him so much, especially this time of year. I wish he could sit on the porch and watch us play dodgeball! Love you.
