2 Months Today

Two months ago today I lost my Dad.  It seems like just yesterday.  I've been thinking about him quite a bit today, I also found some old photos of Daddy when I was cleaning up my bookshelf.  There he was in his ski suit about 9 years ago on top of the Rocky Mountains snow skiing.  I can't even begin to tell you how much he loved skiing.  Daddy was always athletic and enjoyed a challenge.  So when I first went skiing with the church youth group with I was a freshman in high school and came back telling he and Mom how much fun it was, he decided right then and there he wanted to give it a go.  So he and Mom ended up chaperoning every ski trip from that point on.  They absolutely adored Colorado.  My Dad was like a kid in the candy store every time he popped those boots into his skis.  I wish so much I could see him coming down those slopes one more time, but I can't.  As of 2 months ago, I will never see my Dad alive on this earth again, but I will see him in our heavenly home.  So today, I can only stay here on Earth and finish the mission God gave me and look forward to the day that I see my Daddy again.   

Blessings & Tears,
