This is the second Father's Day without my dad. I am one of the lucky ones who had a great dad. In a million years - no one would have been able to explain the hole he'd leave when he died.

I still have that hold in my life they day he passed away, too. But I still think about the good times. He was the greatest dad.

And after now 20 such Father's Days, I still feel that hole in which you mention. The first one without him was indeed the hardest. I was teary eyed in a card store picking out cards for my husband and father-in-law, but couldn't help looking at what I would have bought for my own. Mine was only 62 and I was 29. You learn to deal, but never ever forget that feeling of loss.

We have a new Daddy in our family, my son-in-law, so tomorrow will be nice for him!
