morning ladies..

well 2nd hardest thing i ever did....first being telling my son i disowned

him for 6 months or until he got his life together... and yesterday.. the

second hardest... visiting my dad on fathers day at the cemetary...i cried

a little at home..as i wrote a thank you note to be attached to a balloon and

fresh flowers....i wrote.. dear father,dad, daddy: this is my first year of

52plus years without you on fathers day...i thank u for all the memories in

my heart...i cherish all the times we spent together..i miss u and love u..

your one and only daughter, your little petutee, mary .. sooo went to the

cemetary talked to him told him the news...the daisies i bought were mult-colored with

all different bright colors...i cried again...and told him i loved him..very

hard for me...and still hard to deal with the fact he is gone... thanks

Libby,

What a difficult day for you, but I'm sure your father heard your message and smiled! He must be very proud to have a daughter who loves him so much! I'm sending lots of hugs as you come through the many stepping stones in the grieving process! It sounds like you handled this one beautifully.

Many hugs, Sooze

Libby I think that is a good thing you did to your son, it was hard but for his own goodness!


I am sure it was very hard to go to the cemetary to talk to your dad. Iam sure you felt a little better after talking to him, I know how hard the first year is after losing a parent and want to say it will get easier!

Hugs Lor
