It's been 2 years today since I last saw you, Dad.
The bittersweet time came around 6 that evening. I watched you peacefully take your last breath. I cried and cried...but still felt a sense of relief.
Now, things are still the same...just different without you. I remember the past, the memories, good and bad. I have decided not to let the past be my future.
When my Dad passed away, my world stopped. I found comfort in nothing. Not even my own family could fix my emotions.
Today, as I reflect upon that day, or better that week leading up to that day, I still find myself asking the same questions.
It's hard for me not to think about this day, on today, Dad's death anniversary.
But rather than focus on the sadness, I have decided to think about the positive times.
Today, in your honor, Dad, I did these things for you!
I mowed the lawn-because I remember how much you loved yard work and mowing lawn always makes me think of you.
I drank your favorite pop-mello yellow
and
I ate your favorite turkey sammie for lunch.
Thank you, Dad for the happy memories. I am thinking of you today, as I do everyday.
I miss you and love you!
