Daddy Dreaming

May 8

Daddy

There are days where I say to myself, "Did this really happen?" It feels like something that only happens in movies because it doesn't seem like it happens too often.

The thing I will miss the most is being the protector of Addison. Being a father that she can come and talk to about anything, but leaving the girl stuff for her mom. I kind of wanted to be the dad that put the fear of God in the boys that she would go out with.

There is a commercial on the radio I hear a lot. A dad is crying before his daughters wedding. He says to her, "Just remember that I loved you first." Then the daughter starts to cry.

And then I think of her up in heaven. This isn't doctrine, but my own belief, I see her as being like an 8 year old. Or around that age.

I love her so much and can't wait to see her again. I love you baby girl.

Love,

Daddy

Jennifer Culp: So sweet!

Ginger Faulk: So sweet. I just heard that commercial about 10 minutes ago...it's very touching and so true...dad's do love their little girls first.

Marcy Howard: Think of you guys so much. We all love you. I heard a song the other day that made me think of you as a husband and a father. I will try and find it later today and post it. Thinking of you always.

Joan Vernott: If you have the feeling that Addison is about 8 years old then she probably is!
