A Year Ago Today.......

I lost my buddy.

I lost my emotional compass.

I lost some of my sense of humor.
I lost my spiritual advisor.


I lost my children's grandfather.

And he was a proud grandfather of all four of his grandsons....

and his only granddaughter.

He was their mentor and mine too.

A year ago today, I lost Daddy.
I miss you so much and will love you forever.

I'm so sorry. I can't imagine what it's like to lose your father -- I'm lucky enough to still have mine. it hardly seems like it's been a year already.

This was wonderful Honey...I miss him too.
I miss his face!
I miss his smile!
I miss that little twinkle in his beautiful blue eyes!
I miss the kiss I received when he left for work...then again when he came home!
I miss his wonderful whit!
I miss sitting next to him in church!
I miss our good night kiss!
Above all else, he believed in the Lord!
I love you Kristy!
...Mom

This was posted by a friend of mine on Facebook. It touched me so much and meant so much to me that I thought you might like it too.
" Thought of you with love today, but that is nothing new. I thought of you yesterday and days before that too. I think of you in silence , I often speak your name. All I have are memories and a picture in a frame. Your memory is a keepsake, with which I'll never part. God has you in his keeping,I have you in my ...heart."
