Father's Day

This Father's Day felt weird. I still shake my head and wonder how all of this happened. How a father calls it quits on being a father. I just can't wrap my head around it. But in the midst of all of this...I find that okay. Maybe I will never be able to grasp it all. Maybe that is protection...from the ugly ugly truth.

While I desperately miss my father and wish I had someone to celebrate- I can still be thankful for those amazing men that are in my life. The ones that care for me much like a real father should. The ones that protect me, the ones that watch over me, and the ones that love me unconditionally. How can I not be ever so grateful!?

No is this life the way I had wanted it to be- nope. But each day I realize more and more- everything works out and falls right where it is supposed to. Hurts and pains bring some of the best smiles- in the end. :)

Happy Father's Day to all the wonderful men out there.
