Happy Father's Day to all the great Dads who make each and every day special for their children, and to those who are father figures to children who need them.
It has been 19 years since I spent a Father's Day with my Dad. I miss him everyday but even more so on days like this. I adored my Dad ~ he was smart, funny, adventurous, athletic and a great judge of character. Here is one of my favorite photos of him with my sister. They both loved golf and spent a lot of time on the course:
For many years I couldn't bear to celebrate the day at all but now that I have a daughter of my own, I share my memories with her and we make the day she spends with her Dad very special. FG has inherited her Grandpa's love of golf:
I praise all those fathers who have died but who live on in our hearts and memories ~ their love will continue to nurture us for all our lives.
