Happy Father’s Day, Dad!

I miss you, Dad!  I wish you are here right now to see how your apo, Paul Robert, is growing.  He has some of your feautures – eyes, cheeks, and face shape.  Not too long ago I was gazing at him and I kept saying, “Paul, you look so much like your Lolo Robert!”

One of the things I miss most about my Dad was him at the guitar.  When he gets his hand on one, he could spend a whole day playing and singing John Denver, Beatles, Jim Croce, Peter Paul and Mary, and anything rock folksy.  As the night falls and he pops open a San Miguel Beer or Gin, and he gets a little tipsy, the guitar playing gets better.  As the night deepens and he’s all out drunk, his guitar playing is even much better but his singing is terrible!  I only wish I recorded some of his singing!

Happy Father’s Day to you, Dad, the best a girl like me could ever have!  I love you!

How about you?  Can you name one special moment, among many, that you have with your Dad?
