Choked back my tears today when I realized one year had past since we lost my dad. There have been many instances where I wanted to call and tell him something and realized I couldn’t. I’ve said a lot of prayers, thought about him everyday and wondered what I could have done differently, whether that’s regret or wishing for a better outcome it doesn’t much matter. He would have wanted me to think of the good times and the things he was proud of. So I did, and I went on about my life trying to keep loving and living one he’s be proud of. I hope they have big blocks in heaven and a beautiful lake where the fish bite whenever he drops his line. I hope his pain is gone and his mom, dad and God welcomed him home. Hug your dad, tell him you love him, be proud of your last name.
