51 Years ago today...

Dear Diary,

...I danced with my Dad.  It was my wedding day and today is Father's Day so I thought I post this photo.  Doesn't he look so happy!  He was just 50 years old that day, so hard to believe, and I had just turned 20.  Dad taught me to swing a baseball bat, left handed because he was left handed.  I still do.  He taught be to hammer a nail properly, not "like a girl", and I think of him every time I pick a hammer up.  "Hold it at the end of the handle!"  He made sure my wedding that day was a really beautiful event ignoring my mother's occasional comments about it costing too much.  I miss you Dad.  Happy Father's Day in Heaven!
