Dad Days ~ August 2017

Oh Dad.  I love you.
These are difficult days.
Bringing my kids in and praying you
don't say anything you shouldn't
and that you might possibly for even just
a second remember this little girl 
that sometimes I thought could take 
my place because you loved her so much❤  
Feeding you, loving you,
holding your hand. 
Entertaining, loving and laughing 
with all the other patients....
Waiting until the staff put you to bed
and making sure you were sound asleep.
Praying that you'd stay asleep until morning
when Mother would get there.  
Thanking the Lord for any slight
smile or glimpse of the dad you were❤
I asked you to sign an anniversary card
for Mother.  You still had your 
same handwriting❤❤❤
These words = Truth❤

Dad Days ~ May

May brought lots of tears for my
sweet dad:( We don't really know why.
Is it just disease?  
Is it moments of realization?
I just don't know, but it 
broke my heart every single time. :(
This song continues to speak to me.
I'm trying so hard to keep my eyes 
on the cross!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
SMILES!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh how we LOVE to see his smiles:)
That's who my dad was...
a smiling man!!!
One evening I stopped by without
my mom knowing that I was coming.
This was what I saw when I looked
down the hall.....
my parents sitting there looking
out the window.  God bless them both.
My mother is AMAZING.
A true example of a loving wife
through sickness and health.  
Adelle with her "Baby"!!!
Dad is most content with Mom there.
I love them both so much.  
Mother also keeps Dad
Best Dressed at the nursing home!!!
Dad and I visiting with Maureen.....
She was a trip!!!!!!
I loved her:)
UH OH...
The LOOK.  
A typical Saturday night
these days...and that's okay.  
Because if I try hard enough,
sometimes I get a grin or two
from my sweet dad!:)
