Little Orphan Heather
I need a fatherly hug. One that makes you feel like a little girl again and that you are safe only the way you feel wrapped in your daddy's arms. The thing is, I will never get another Daddy hug again. This really bothers me. My Dad passed away a little over 5 years ago and it still hurts. I am sad, but not for him. He is in a better place and is no longer suffering like he did most of his adult life. I am sad for me. Sad that I can't call him up and say Hi. Sad that I can't have a daddy hug, sad that my favorite fishing buddy is gone. There are so many little things that I miss. So today, I am sad and will allow myself this feeling for a little while. Then I will smile, wipe the tears and face today and the future head on. Just remember if I have that sad far away look or seem a little down, I am Little Orphan Heather.....

I hear ya, Heather. My dad passed 7 years ago on the 1st of March and I miss my dad, too. We didn't have the kind of relationship that you had with your dad. I never got hugs or really spent much time with my dad but in the end, we DID make up and I DO love and miss him big time. So I can relate and I'll be praying for you. Love always, Sharlene
