Today you would have been 72 years old. All this week I would have been planning your dinner or get together, it was weird not to do so. I am so glad we threw a nice shindig last year for you. I had no idea it would be your last but such is life, such is death. It still feels like it wasnt that long ago. I miss you dad. I am sure I always will. I know you live in me and I feel your presence sometimes when I say certain things or when I know exactly what you would say on certain ocassions and I smile when that happens. You would never want us to be sad and I know you would love to be remembered with a smile. So I will do just that. Happy birthday Papi! I love you.
PS. There is a solar eclipse today. You would have been all into that and would probably be writing about it for your radio talk show. :)
