It is Father's Day... a day for dads everywhere to get ugly neckties and homemade cards... for us it has been bittersweet... I found myself crying as I drove to my friend's house last night thinking about what I had to look forward to today... another milestone in our lives that I guess I'm glad has come to pass... I might feel better about it had we had some of his remains but that is one of many things his girlfriend still hasn't turned over... it makes me sad for the kids... their father is now more of an abstract concept instead of someone that can be seen or touched... they can barely cling to the memories but how long before even I forget his voice? So on this Father's Day, I bid Chris a happy one wherever he is...
