Happy Father's Day!


This picture is from our Father-Daughter Dance at my wedding.  I picked the song "Butterfly Kisses" by Bob Carlisle.  I knew when I picked the song that both of us were going to lose it, and I was right.  There just was no other song that I could think of that would be any more perfect for us.  I can't listen to that song with out thinking about him and tearing up. I was right, and we were both crying through the first verse, but about halfway through we both started laughing, it was very special.  I have always been a bit of a daddy's girl. I certainly get my temper from him =).  

We have always bonded over sports.  From softball when I was little to basketball as I got older.  All throughout my basketball career I looked to him for advice, critiques and encouragement.  Event when I was in college and he could not come to my games, he would call me a few hours before game time to give me a pep talk. He never missed a pre-game call.  It was like it calmed me down and I was ready to play after that.

So Happy Father's Day to my wonderful dad!  I love you and I wish I could be there today with you!
