Who Knew?

Last Father's Day with Dad and John

Last Father's Day turns out to have a double meaning.  Who knew it would be the last Father's Day with our wonderful Dad?  Not us.  Not a clue. Why go there? Why go dark when you're surrounded by light and love and blintzes, maybe a brownie and a nice danish?  We didn't. Didn't even give it a thought.  What a great way to drive yourself crazy. For a what-iffer like me, not a healthy choice.  So we did last Father's Day the right way.  Not thinking it was the last brunch.  Not thinking that at all.  This Father's Day is bittersweet.  No way around that. Today will be a tough one.  No doubt about it.   But we can still celebrate our wonderful Dad, even if he's only with us in spirit, debating whether to go with half a bagel or live a little and go whole.  Go full onion, Dad. Just like you taught us.
