What about the Dads? I miss mine more than anyone in the world. If I had one hour to sit in a bench with anyone in the history of the world… it would be my Dad. He was the best and died almost two years ago. He was the most amazing husband and father. I would have rather lost my mom and I love her a lot. But my Dad always made me feel safe wherever I was in the world. He would have kicked down walls to get to me if I needed him.🥰🥰🥰 He was my best friend in the world.

I was very fortunate my Mother was and had been everything to me whether it was at 5 yrs of age all the way till her passing at my age of 27 yrs of age...She was my support all thru the years I had her...that push that every young child, young adult, and grown adult Needs...just Always supporting any positive life choice & achievement that shaped Me was because of her encouraging My positive choices. I wouldn't be the WOMAN I am today without her and the love ..

As I was growing up I called my mother three names I don't know why. From 1 to 12 called her mommy, 13 to 18 I called her mom , then the rest of her life she died on her 92 birthday I called her mother. 😥❤️
