Today

My father was born on this day in 1936.


He died just about exactly two years ago now, so today carries its own kind of sadness. But I also find myself profoundly grateful for his life, for his years of quiet, gentle fatherhood to my siblings and I.

Because he lived, I live. Because he lived, my children are possible.

Thanks, Dad.
