Remembering

Wow, it's hard to believe that the years have gone by so fast. I've missed dad just about every day of those past few years. I've tried to put the memores of Dad into one box in my mind and have tried to see if I could find one word to explain who my dad was... that has been very unsuccessful!! I think of the things he told us over the years, the advice, the love he gave, the hard work to provide for his family, his faith in God, and his amazing ability to get along with just about everybody and I realize that 1,000 words would not explain who my dad was. He had such a simple way of living - -work hard, love his family and provide, but what he actually left us was way more than that!!! Not a week goes by when one of his sayings, or some of his advice, pops into my head and makes me smile. The memories keep getting sweeter as the years go by. I realize this is rambling some, but, these are the things I'm thinking about on this special day. Speaking of memories, Here's one of my favorite memories of dad and our family:
