Happy Father's Day!

I was gifted with a wonderful father--he was the person who taught me how to make spaghetti sauce and we would dip with GG's homemade bread to taste :) and the man who taught me how to change a tire on my 71' VW just in case I needed to someday, and to never yell at my mother :) he was soft spoken and a man of few words but those words hit the mark everytime. I would have loved to have more time with him...but the time I did gave me wonderful memories that I carry with me daily--he is the little voice in my head that guides my way with the secondary voice being my Grandma's.
Lots of folks say that you marry the man most like you father and I would have to say that I was lucky too...my husband Garlan is a jack of all trades like my father (he can handle/figure out anything) and a wonderful man and father to his children and will make a awesome grandfather (thank you Jessica and Coy). When we lived with my mother for a few years I would say that Garlan and my mother shared one magnificent brain...they could figure out with there methodical brains the best approach/solution to fix a problem...I would love to have a brain like that!
