My Dad

Happy 65th Birthday Dad!

Do you remember?

• putting me over your knee and spanking me when I was 15?
  

• taking long naps together?

• caring for me after Jill was born?

• the long drives from Edmonton to Logan with Matt and I in the back making fun of your music?

• being afraid when I was at the wheel?

• taking Mindy and I to Saturday night dances and then having to pick us up at 2 a.m. because we couldn't get home?

• skating at Mayfair park?

• slurpies?

• living together in the apartment in Clareview?

• playing in the snow?

• listening to me practice playing the oboe and bass clarinet?

• making dolmathes?

• cooking Saturday morning breakfast (Greek eggs, roly polies, and cantalope)?

• camping?

• consoling me after break-ups and sending me flowers?

• taking hundreds of pictures of me when I was young and making me pose for every one of them?

• singing "It Ain't Gonna Rain No More, No More" and "Neena Nina" to me?

• the times I permed your hair?

• watching Matt and I put on dance recitals?

• Christmas at my apartment?

• my HORRIBLE teenage years?

• always beating me at card games?

• Trans-Siberian concerts?

• watching "The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly?

• listening to Prince?

• taking me to the hospital to have my foot stitched up?

I have so many wonderful memories of spending time with you. I just want you to know that I love you and I will always be your little girl...
