He was the one who always fixed my car and didn't charge me for fixing it.<br /><br />He showed his love for me in so many ways, but it wasn't until the weekend before he died that he actually said, "I love you". Those words I shall cherish forever, and I am careful that I tell my children that I love them often, and always try and show my love for them.<br /><br />I miss my dad so much, but I take his values and his budgeting skills with me throughout life. He was/is a wonderful man, very stoic, straight down the line and a man that you could entrust your life to.<br /><br />Thank you for the memories - they are precious!<br />Blessings,<br />Jillian<br /><><Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2044945947832003194.post-6325148649151251962009-08-31T01:56:05.264-07:002009-08-31T01:56:05.264-07:00It's so true.

Mostly I do it for my children though, I want them to be able to say mommy was always there for them. <br /><br />I also have memories of family and I'm sure they don't adequately portray the people they were but none the less it's how they are remembered in my mind. <br /><br />Our memories are something no one can ever take from us, and most of the time that's a good thing.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05908763126393633050noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2044945947832003194.post-35128803734422962392009-08-30T20:02:19.153-07:002009-08-30T20:02:19.153-07:00Ah... so hard to be nice with teens in the house, ...Ah... so hard to be nice with teens in the house, though!!! <br /><br />The rocker is splendid.Happy Elf Mom (Christine)https://www.blogger.com/profile/15047347624037697311noreply@blogger.com
