Happy Birthday Dad!
One thing I love about Dad is that he always appreciates the gifts you give him. I am sure I have given some lousy presents in the past but he always makes you feel like you gave him a treasure. One year I remember I sat down and typed him a poem and framed it. I am sure it was pretty lame because I don't think I worked that long on it. I remember being pretty proud of it though. When dad opened it and read it he got tears in his eyes and gave me a huge hug. He hung it in his room and I remember seeing it a lot after that (although I have not seen it for MANY years. Do you still have it dad :)? I am always so grateful for that genuine love of the gifts we give. I live you dad and hope you have a great birthday!!

Hmmm...I do remember that poem. I'll search for it. Thank you Sarah for this entry. I'm finding out this birthday that I had more impact with all of you than I ever, ever imagined. I always thought it was Mom that realy had the impact...surely not me. Maybe I was wrong...
