Dear Dad

Dear Dad,

              I felt i needed to drop you a line, and really you would of thought that, after all this time i would have set time aside, to do it properly, but its 6.15am and i have a tonne of jobs to do, but just need to do this first.

I want you to know that although  i talk to you most days, i dont always tell you that i love you, or how much i am pleased that you are a part of me. Things  with the kids dont alaways go to plan , and as they are growing up they can be quite stubborn and difficult, really dont know where that comes from , but i am pleased that i am able to talk to you about things and share with you all my woes. I want to say thank you for the time you took when i was young, to show me how to change a tyre , and build a wall ( of which will come in very handy )  , i didnt always show it then but Honestly i am grateful.

This has rather gone off the point of the note really, as i didnt set out to 'blab on' as you'd say but i wanted to say that, i do miss you and i wish i could swap one thing to spend a day with you, i laugh at your jokes now, as i seee them for what they are , (really rubbish  DAD jokes) but they are what they are .

Dad , sorry that this is a rushed note , but i will write again soon and i will post you pictures of the girls as it is sad you have never met them, i know that you will and i know that you see all . I cannot quite believe that is nearly 13yrs since my last hug. I hope that you are happy and having a laugh with Uncle Norm, Anyway enough waffling, i have a family to run, see you whenever Dad, and i love you, keep looking after me xxxxx

By the way Dad i really really miss you xx
