Father's Day

Father's Day

 

Today is Father's Day.  This year it is bitter-sweet.

The bitter part is that my dad passed away in March and I miss him.  He was a great dad.  He had a wicked sense of humor, was a great outdoorsman, and loved his family.  I grew up listening to "Bean and the Jackstock", being called Udlick (quite the nickname), and hearing boy scout songs ALL the time.  He was a dad who loved all of my bring-home pets - tarantulas, horn toads, puppies, frogs to name a few.  He loved my mom and all of us.  I miss him.

The sweet part is that I am married to PoppaH.  He is a great dad.  He has a wicked sense of humor, is a brilliant scientist, and loves his family.  My kids have grown up listening to Harry Potter, being called many funny names, and hearing classical music ALL the time.  He is a dad who loves our pets.  He loves me and all of his kids.  I love him.
