Yeah, the stories are definitely excellent. Especially because he was a crazy man with no shortage of ridiculous stories! ;)
I think of you quite a bit and what you went through with your dad. I don't know too many people who lost fathers/parents in the time that I've known them and in some ways it's nice to have some people who kind of understand. My volunteer coordinator called me yesterday and said, plain as day, "Yeah, my dad died a couple of years ago. It just sucks." I really appreciate that sort of thing. Thanks.
And I love that photo, and the other photos I have of Dad and Jen dancing at my brother's wedding. Not only do they really seem to enjoy each other, but it makes my heart happy to know that he cared about her, that she cared about him, and that they considered each other family. Acceptance came easily to my dad where I was concerned. I'm very glad for that.
