Today is my dad’s 84th birthday. We are blessed that he is so active and in such good health.  I am privilaged that my dad lives just down the street.  Whenever I need help or advice he is always there for me. Happy Birthday Dad.

To My Father

It matters not that Time has shed
His thawless snow upon your head,
For he maintains, with wondrous art,
Perpetual summer in your heart.

– William Hamilton Hayne

The weather changed today; the sky was cloudy this morning but the temperature was warm. By evening it was raining and with a definite winter like chill in the air. My family and I celebrated my dad’s birthday by joining my parents for dinner. Later on in the evening my mom, dad and I had a memorable time watching “My Big Fat Greek Wedding.”

To Dad with Love

 Some things will always be in style

Good solid things like honesty, and trust and caring about people,

It’s qualities like these, Dad, that you’ve taught me to value

Through your influence, your example, and your love.

 It has made me love you very much,

And has made me very proud to have you for my Dad.
