Father's Day will soon be here. It is a hard day for my children and for me--because we share the sorrow of loosing our Daddys. It is astounding to share that kind of sorrow with one's children... My Dad flew to heaven a little over four years ago. Their Daddy passed on two and a half years ago.
My Father was a wonderful man. He was fair and strong, gentle and loving. It is said women often marry someone like their Father--I did. Alan was a dear and precious Daddy who generously loved his children more than himself. In this, I have been doubly blessed.
Our tradition now, is to get the family together to reminisce and to laugh together. We eat good food, play lots of music and tell stories. It is beautiful, sweet and yet achingly sad. Isn't it amazing how we can share our sorrows and are the better for it?
Happy Father's Day dear ones, and Happy Postcard Friendship Friday.
