Happy Birthday Dad!!

I miss your smile.
I miss making you laugh.
I miss you sending me flowers.
I miss your humor.
I miss our lunch dates.
I miss our fishing trips.
I miss you trying not to swear in front of me.
I miss your hugs.
I miss SOME of your phone calls, but not others.
I miss seeing you hug my kids.
I miss seeing you hug my grand kids.
I miss calling you.
I miss you calling Doran, Dewey.
I just plain miss you all together!
I will try to serve others to make you proud.
I will try to live my life full like you would want me to.
I will love my family like I need to.
I love you Dad and I miss you terrible!
Happy Birthday!
