Of them all, this is my favorite photo of my dad and me. We just adopted a new cocker spaniel puppy and I was less than certain about it. I love that my dad came down to my level and, in his shelter, reassured me that Corky was very nice and it would be just fine. He was right.
More than this incident, I always knew my dad was, and still is, there for me. We didn't always agree, especially during the turbulent 60s, but I have never questioned that I am loved.
Happy Father' Day, Daddy! I may not have been able to see you this year, but I could hear your voice and tell you how much I love you. May I have a few more years where that is true.
lovely photo and touching post LJ. I miss my dad.
