The first of firsts....

Today would have been my dad's 83rd birthday.
So, today we reach the first in a year of firsts....
And because it's a first, and not long into this weird year, the calendar reminds me.
As if I needed reminding.

There it is.
In big bold letters
Dad 83 
July 22nd.

Today I am feeling, more keenly than ever, the distance between my home and the homes of my siblings.
Between where I live, and where the rest of my family live.

Thinking of you all
With love and tears

Rest in Peace Dad - Happy Birthday
