Today is Father's Day and it is important for all of us to pay tribute to our dad's! It is sometimes hard to do if we are not getting along with them or if they have passed, but I like to spend some of the day thinking of some of the positive memories I have had with my dad. He wasn't the most perfect dad and he even admits he made his share of mistakes but he did his best and that's all I could hope for. It was hard for me to call him and wish him a Happy Father's Day since we have had alot of differences lately, and on and off my entire life, but he's my dad and I know I love him deep down inside even though it doesn't feel that way right now.
I am glad that I called him and I know he was so happy to hear from me. He wants to celebrate Father's Day by taking me and my sister out to dinner! I said "we should be taking you out to dinner!" Although we all weren't able to get together today, I know we all will get together soon. It is hard to believe that there was a time that my dad, mom, sister and I were always together and lived together!Now we all hardly ever see each other. I have my own family now and so does my sister and I realize that we will never all live together again and it makes me sad.
I can't forget the fun camping trips, skiing trips, vacations and celebrations we all had together. Even though now they feel like a lifetime ago. And the times my dad would help me with my homework and tutored me with math. Dad, I can't forget you on Father's Day. Love you, Dad!
