Dad
I am having lunch-thinking of you.
Turkey sandwiches have never tasted the same since you have passed away. Things haven't been the same...everything has been different.
Each day, I think of you-time and time again. I had a garage sale this weekend and attempted to sell a few of your shirts and pants. I know you probably laughed thinking I was trying to capitalize on your stuff. Well, I needed some dough. :)
It was hard watching people sift though your things, but I thought at least I wouldn't get too emotional at my garage sale. I was right...I kept my emotions intact until mom cam over. She picked out a few things that she wanted for Sam...after she left to spend the afternoon at school with Alex-I cried. I miss you so much! I wish there was a way to have more time with you. I need a few more minutes...even though I know that would probably not be enough either.
GRRRRRRRRRRRRR!
I am cooking dinner for my father in law tonight because my mother in law is out of town for a few more days. We are having brats on the grill. I know not a fav of yours, but it would have been nice to cook you dinner sometime.
I never did that for you. I wish I would have. Well, just thinking of you a whole lot today.
I miss you and love you Dad. I am sorry that you left this world so early and under such crazy circumstances.
Have a good day!

Happy Birthday and Easter too!
Long time since an update...
We had a nice Easter.
Easter was a beautiful time filled with lots of fun family activities. Easter egg hunts with the boys, lots of good food, family gathering, and of course lots of candy.
We went to lunch with Grandpa and Pat during Easter week. As always, we had a nice visit and good food.
And...we went to go see you at the cemetery. Not much has changed there-snow has melted, and that's about it. Our hopes are to get you a headstone soon. Although peaceful and quiet at the cemetery...still not a comfortable place to be. I can't help but to remember the moment that I saw you take your last breath. I said some prayers, and quietly shed some tears. I take comfort in knowing that Grandma is there with you. Going to the cemetery kind of reminds me of this.
Happy birthday Dad-hope you had a great birthday! On April 11th...I thought of you-All day long! We had a special day that day. Your birthday was the day we brought our puppy home. Frank, loves his new home! We are so gladl that we got him on your birthday too! I will always remember that day for two reasons now!
You are probably laughing about it...the idea of us having a pet. Remember Penny and Geezer??? I know-a lot of work. This will be too. What a scene though. Lots of laughs!
Miss you Dad, and love you too!
