Today is fathers day .. Thinking of my dad.. what a great guy

 

I miss you every day Pa.. Sending you love wherever you are

Also thinking about Diane’s Dad.. another great guy.. 

Sending love out to all those other dads I know..

I love being a dad.. our two boys are doing so well. Being part of their lives is the most rewarding thing I’ve ever done.

 

 

It was extra special having Gabe here with me to mark the day !
. 

Of course the day is bittersweet.. I miss Sam so much every day.. on days like this it hurts.. not more, but maybe a little differently. . I dont cry often anymore.. but I did today.

Diane made me a wonderful apple cake (my fav !) to mark the day.

We did a quick bolton hike to mark the day.. it was cool and drizzly.. kinda mystical !

 

Mason and Abbot came over to say Hi…. which  was nice.. they feel like extended family to us. 

 

I found a smoke bomb and set it off in the yard.. by myself… or maybe for for me and sam.. I watched the smoke dissipate.. made me feel better somehow . 

 

The best fathers day present was getting to help Gabe build a “plasma gun”  for Jacks wedding. We had to do alot of trial and error whcih was fun …  Our friend Sumner helped !

 

Now thats a fun way to end a day !

Happy fathers day to all you dads !

nite all, nite sam
