As  the snow here in Washington covers the earth in silence I think back to many snow days we all shared. I remember you teaching us to make snow shoes. The first attempt was a mess to say the least. Tree branches all over and all of us kids in such a hurry to get done. Those first sets did not last a day. Lol thank you for the lesson. I'm making some next week, I'll try your lesson again.  I miss and love you more than I can say dad.

Hello Grandpa! We think about you often and miss you so very much. Both boys are doing well, and you would be so proud of your grandsons and the amazing men that they are becoming. They are good and kind and continue to grow. I know that you are proud of them, and more than anything, we wish that you could be here.

Love, Pamela

My Dad

By: Pamela Miller

My world got a little emptier today

You see my dad he passed away

He’s not the dad that gave me life but he's the one that stayed and tried.

I fought him at every turn and he won my heart was simple words

“You’ve turned out okay girl” means I love you and daughter I am proud of you.

It is a pride I know today I'm his kid in so many ways

People tell me that I'm like him the strength, the fight, the unapologetic way, the sassiness as he would say.

His journey in the physical form has ended today like closing a door

But don't you worry I'm here to say he's with us all in wondrous ways.

I'll carry him on my journey with me

He’s in my heart so blessed I'll be.

If I listen with my heart I can hear him talking:

I'm in the wind listen!

I'm in the creek listen!

I'm in the trees listen!

I'm in the wild listen!

I'm in the sunshine listen!

I'm in the rain listen!

I'm in the earth listen!

Holy crow even from there he's still telling me what to do.

I'll answer, I always talk back.

Dad I'm listening, but first let me explain that I'm not arguing I'm just telling you why I'm right.

I want to thank you for the arguments, the teaching, the preaching ( about absolutely everything), the laughter, the tears( even these ones), the stubbornness, the lectures( I give family meetings now too), the rescues, and the holidays.

Thank you most of all for the love and time that you put in, because one day I turn out okay, I love you and will coin your phrase “bye-bye for now” dad.

P.S. Dad if you're done with your soapbox could I have it?
