I need to thank you for being there for me. I don't think I ever really have in the ways that I should have. When you are seperated by distance you start to realize who really matters in your life. You have taught me many things that I use daily...For this I want to tell you I Love You and I am glad you are my Father.

Have a Lite for me and I am awaiting your visit!!!

I watched you today,

as you watched your grandchildren,

my child, and wondered

how you endured the pain,fear,joy and elation

that transforms us into parents.

I remembered the patience,

the laughter ,the tears.

Do I have the strength to endure it all?

It is with great anticipation,

that I take these baby steps as guardian,

guide and parent,

filled with a fear of flying and failing,

hoping that I might find,

as you have -the child within myself,

the magic of youth.

To encourage the spirit,

and to nuture the imagination

as well as the soul.

I will move slowly,delicately,yet boldly,

armed with the wisdom of your life,your love,

with full awareness of my shortcomings,

yet pride in my strength,

thankful that it was you

that brought me to this place,

this time,this love.

I watched you today

as you watched your grandchildren.
