My Sweet Dad
Well today my Dad turned 85 years old! It is hard to believe...I swear he is still 60 something. :) We were not able to throw together a huge party with friends and family but we did get together to celebrate with immediate family.
We had a bit of a scare the weekend before. I received a phone call on Friday night saying Dad was in the emergency room. He had a mini stroke and it was brought up that he had another one two days before. I rushed over to the hospital around 10 p.m. and thank goodness he was looking great and they were getting ready to send him home. I can't imagine what it would be like to have both parents gone. In the meantime, I am grateful he is around and that my kids are able to visit and get to know him.
I am so grateful for my Dad. He is such a good example to me. He is always helping others! I will see friends, family and acquaintances that know him and they always speak very highly of him. I know growing up and currently, he has been a huge support to me when I was playing softball, church sports, dancing, running, etc. He was my big cheerleader and always had the encouragement that I could do anything! There was never any doubt. I am so blessed to have him in my life. Happy Birthday Dad! Love you!
