July 15


Twenty nine years ago,  I gave my dad a birthday present that will never be beat--his first and only grandson. 

Two months ago I didn't think my dad would make another birthday.  Thanks to the wonders of modern medicine, he is back, better than ever.  While one present can never be topped, he was thrilled with breakfast at IHOP, complete with a birthday serenade and a sundae.

Happy 87th dad.  May we have many, many more together.

What I would do now to have another day with my grandmother, actually any of my grandparents at this point.

I agree with sweet girl....I would give anything not even for a day but a minute with my mom or dad! Enjoy him.
