4 years.

Today marks 4 years since my Dad's passing.  It is a dreaded day for me.  I don't like the month of February because of February 11th.  I miss him so much.  People say it gets easier.  I would like to know when that is!? 

Today, Sarah and I went with Miss Ellee.  I don't want to say that bringing her made it easier, just more bearable.  She was so cute.  I pointed to my Dad's plaque and said this is your Grandpa Lee.  And she said "Bampa".  She then went and pointed to other people's plaques and said "Bampa". I can't wait until she is a little older and will understand all the amazing stories about her Grandpa Lee!

february 11th.

This is a hard day for me and my family every year.  And I have to say it does not get any easier!  This year marked the 3rd anniversary of my Dad's passing.  I'm a little late posting this but, last week I was really sick and then Ellee came down with what I had.  It has been a stressful week and a half.
Each year I take flowers to my Dad's memorial site and I snap a picture.  This year Miss Ellee came with us.  Not that she knew what was going on but, I want to make it a tradition that she goes with us so that she knows who her Grandpa was.  Every year it makes me sad that she will never get to meet him.  She will know him though.  We will tell her stories of him.  There will never be any question about who he was!
