Fathers Day 2012

Fathers Day is a bittersweet day for me! Many people are fortunate to have one great dad in their lives and I was blessed with two! I am always talking about my daddy, Rick, who lives in Florida who my son adores and with whom I very close with. He has been (and continues to be) an incredible father and best friend to me and I love him very much.

I don't get to talk often about my real father, Jerry. He passed away 7 years ago this past March and I miss him dearly. He never got to meet my husband or hold my children but I know he was so very proud of me and I feel his presence often. He was a man of many talents and hobbies. He could fix anything and was a friend to anyone.  (I know you are looking down from Heaven smiling while watching your grandkids play and grow). So even if you are not close to your father, just be thankful for him. I am so glad I made the effort to spend time with my father before he passed away because that is time I can never replace!! Happy Fathers Day to everyone out there who is a father or is a very important father figure to someone!

And here is a picture of the best dad in my house! I love you hun and thank you for all that you do for us! You are an incredible father!
