Dad and me |
He taught me how to ride a bike, fly a kite and how potato chips are made. He made sure that the girls, as well as the boys, knew how to do basic car repairs, mow a lawn (the right way) and how to clean the fish that you caught (eww). He has worked hard all of his life.
When I first moved back to Cedar City with my own little family, I talked him into singing in the "Messiah" with me. I couldn't bear to go through Christmas without participating. He is now a member of the Master Singers, an all male choir in our town.
I've rarely seen him cry, but I know his feelings run deep.
Dad has started to slow down and it's hard for us to watch. I love the time we spend together singing,laying tile and just having a good time with the family. He and mom will celebrate their 50th wedding anniversary this year!!
Happy Father's day Dad!
party on peeps!
