Birthdays past


Today would have been my Dad's 81st birthday, had he not died in 1992. Well, I guess it's still his birthday! I was thinking of him today and found this old slide photo of us in the early 60s. I think we were next to Lake Ontario. I always look happy in photos with my Dad. :)

  2. Well, you look sweet and he does too. It's nice to have moments in time at hand . . . I have about a thousand photos of me and my siblings, and Dad and Mother, but who's ever going to preserve them? It would be nice to have a Knattie to whom I could entrust that duty.

    I'm very sure he's very, very proud of you. He's still around -- you just can't see him.

  3. You haven't changed one bit. Same happy face! He was a great Dad. And he and your Mom raised you well. He was far too young to die. But you're keeping him alive with your memories.

    I believe that parents never let their children go. They sustain us and inspire us in all we're doing.

    Just give him a big hug. He'll return it.
