10.17.01 HAPPY
BIRTHDAY to DAD!
I don't know if my sisters feel the same way (I'm sure they do), but
whenever I think of Dad, I always end up crying...not sad tears or anything.
Just this overwhelming feeling of love and respect. It's hard to describe,
but he is an incredible man, husband, and father. He's smart...REALLY
smart, shy, kind, funny, patient, humble, and virtuous. My dad enjoys
the simple things in life and never takes anything for granted. Even
though all three daughters are married, and left the nest, we continue
to look towards him as a source of strength. In my heart and in his
eyes, I will always see myself as a little girl. Today, Ashlyn got a visit from her uncle Patrick. He spent the whole afternoon with us. It was a pretty relaxed day....no exploding diapers! hehehehe. Well, I better wrap this up...Dawson's Creek will be on soon, and Ed & Sue are coming over with Lauren and some food! =) Ahhhh, this is the life! Who said having a baby was hard work?! *knock on wood* =P Oh, I want to THANK Aaron & Mayu for the Mrs. Field's cookies package I got via mail! Mmmmm! You guys are so sweet, and you both are sorely missed! Thanks! Random thought: After watching Dawson's Creek last week, I have to ask: "what's going on with Jen?....she's not looking too good". =( |
