Thanks for sharing about your dad and the wonderful relationship you had with him. I never had that with my biological or step-father.
My only regret,was my own daughters had failures in both men that could of been Fathers!
My Daughters are something to be proud of. All I Can say,they missed out Hugely! Thank The Lord I've been able to be There as a Mom and stepped Up as A Dad ,and give my daughter Lauren away at her wedding! The Ultimate is, when you did okay by your kids, when their dad failed them. You and all are Okay in my Book,regardless! We All become Stronger in Seeking What is Missing in Our Life! (Just made this up! ha!) Hope you like it! Oh Well ,Long post and should call it a night! :)
