My Dad writes a daily my two brothers and myself read nearly everyday. We all look forward to them with great anticipation. A sneak peek into their lives, one day at a time. How's the weather, who won between the goal posts over the weekend, what the day shall bring forth. And there is usually the commentary on the drinking of the latte. He always ends his piece with " happy trails 'till we meet again" or "love you mises to pieces". Today he wrote something priceless.........
... i listen during the night laying there in the silence listening to the rhythmic sound of her breathing. It is so comforting ,there in the darkness - her breathing peacefully next to me. No matter what has happened during the daylight hours , my night is secured by her quietness , for she is here beside me . This woman has made my life worthwhile , thank you God for helping me find her , those many years ago ... " i am a rich man ..."
I love you Dad! Your love is immeasurable. You not only have shown it to our mother but shared it with your children and grandchildren. We are very rich to have you for our FATHER for never has there been a man so giving of his love. You are the example of our Lord in heaven would have if ever he could hold a man up and say "this is what a man who loves his family should be".
