Thankful Thursday

I am thankful for my Dad this week. I know I have probably posted this picture on my blog many times, but I don't care because it's my favorite. My Dad wasn't a super lovey dovey kind of guy all the time....I would even describe him as a guy's guy in some ways. But he did tell us he loved us and he did give GREAT bear hugs.

Today I am thankful for the 25 years that God gave me with him. I wish I had appreciated him more, asked for more advice, thanked him more, hugged him more and called him more.....but I cannot change those things. What I CAN do is honor him by being a daughter that he would be proud of. He provided for us and made sacrifices so that we would have a comfortable, stable and happy life. That's how he showed his love. Oh, and those great bear hugs too. :)
