Fast forward to age 44....my father passed away last May. I will tell you a secret....I placed a note in his pocket....inside it said..."I will always be your baby. No one else knows I did that.....

I'll tell ya when my father died, it brought all the emotions from my mother passing right back up to the top....everything you'd thought you'd dealt with....sigh.

Both seem like yesterday and forever at the same time

Ok~ tears are streaming now!
