Father’s Day has been bittersweet for me. Celebrating Father’s Day with my kids is always a happy, fun time, but then there’s the sadness I feel that goes with the loss of my dad and grandfather. They were both great example of what Fathers should be and they left a positive, lasting effect on my life. When I look out my window on Father’s Day, I always think  of them. My dad because he went with me to dig pine trees at a local tree farm to transplant in my yard when I first moved in, and my grandfather who planted the maple tree seedlings that now tower overhead. The trees that had to be planted precisely so many feet apart according to his direction. Nothing crazy, just little things we did together as I knew their help and guidance was always there. On this post-Father’s Day blog, I want to thank not only these two men in my life but also my husband. He has lived up to their example of what a father should be and I’m so thankful to have chosen him as the father of my children.
