Today is my dad's birthday. For those of you that don't know, he passed away June, 06' of multiple organ failure due to liver disease. Im just seriously missing him. I just wish so much that he were here, that he would have been able to be at my wedding, hang out with Jason and be the absolutely amazing grandpa I know he would have been. I feel like Ethan is missing out on so much because he doesnt have the chance to ever know his grandpa. Life is so unfair sometimes.
Great. I just got a call from Jason that he has to work a swing shift tonight after his day shift, so a 16 hour day. He wont be home till midnight. Awesome.
Im thinking of calling my sister and seeing if she wants to do anything today. The State Fair just opened and it was one of my dad's favorite things to do, maybe we can go do that or something. With Jason not coming home I need out of the house.
I know losing a loved one is so incredible hard. I can't imagine losing my dad. Just wanted to let you know that I was thinking about you and praying for you!
ReplyDelete*hugs* I have so been there. I lost my mom almost 5 years ago. My son keeps looking at pictures asking "Mama?" I look a lot like her. I keep explaining that no that's his Grammy and she is in heaven with Jesus.
ReplyDeleteI know you don't know me, but I'm a lurker on BOTB. I lost my dad 5 years ago this month. I have all the same feelings as you. He was not at my wedding, nor ever met my husband. Although I don't have children yet, I often think about the things he would want to teach them. I miss him terribly too. Your dad will always be with you and Ethan. My thoughts are with you.
