Happy Birthday Pa, we will always be connected
I wrote a long story (not short) about my Dad. 
William Joseph Durkin
and stayed up way past my bedtime to write it
and
of course I didnt save it anywhere
He is 86 today
April 22nd 

Just when I was going to hit
"post entry"
I lost my internet connection


on the positive side
at least I didnt lose my Dad!

I wlll try again...
even though it took me a very long time to write the first one
yet
I suppose
not as long as it took my father to get to his 86th birthday

so
to make a long story short
Happy Birthday Pa
We love you!


wouldnt it be nice
if we could 
hit
save
to keep our loved ones close

no matter how distracted
I know I would remember to do that!
I would never ever want to lose my connection with any of them

Wishing your Dad a "belated" Happy Birthday. I know how you feel. At 85 I feel so blessed to have both my parents here with me. Peace.

You are so right about the Save button. How I wish I could have given my dad another few years. Now I have difficulty remembering him really properly. Enjoy every day with your dad, as I know you do!

awwww, wish we could. My Dad has been gone for 15 years now. He never got to be an old man.So I remember him always as he was, bigger than life. An adventurer. Hug your dad extra hard when you see him. I never got to say goodbye.
