Whether your kids are human or furry,
enjoy your special day!
Father’s Day can be bittersweet for those of us whose fathers are no longer with us. It’s sometimes hard to believe that my dad has been gone for 20 years. Even so, I still get a little sad each year when Father’s Day comes around.
The photo above is one of my absolute favorite photos of my dad. Can’t you just feel the love? I think it’s safe to say that nobody else in my life ever has loved me or ever will love me as much as he did.
One specific memory of my dad always comes back to me right around Father’s Day. It still makes me cry each time I remember it. When I was four years old, we vacationed at a lake with a rocky beach. My dad would get up every morning and remove all the rocks from a small section of the beach so his little girl would have a sandy beach to play on. My dad literally moved the earth for me to make me happy!
Whether you’re the dad of human or feline children, enjoy your day. And if your dad is no longer with you, I hope today is filled with wonderful memories of your time together.

I enjoy your memory of your dad every year, and it inspires me to remember my dad in similar, specific, wonderfully warm memories. Thanks.
Thanks for sharing your dad with us. That first picture really does show how much he loved you from the start.
Beautiful photos and lovely memories Ingrid.
