"Thank you God for blessing me with the most amazing father. Thank you dad for giving us everything, always without a complaint. You are the perfect example of a hard-working, love-giving, and amazing father. Thank you God for blessing me with a husband who possesses those same qualities. Happy Father's Day Dad!!...... Happy Father's Day MARCO!"
My dad has done a lot for me. A LOT. He continues to do A LOT for me. And sometimes it's the little things that I will forever have in my heart. Saturday we were at the mall in Odessa, and as we were leaving the smell of movie theater popcorn did not sit well with me. As soon as we hit the parking lot, I started gagging.
My brothers being the brothers that they are, started making sounds of disgust and quickly walked ahead to the car. My mom who never experienced any sickness in any of her 3 pregnancies (lucky her) kept walking along.
I stopped in a grassy area of the parking lot and proceeded to throw up, and who do you think was by my side? My DAD. I could just feel the sympathy he felt for me at that moment. He took my shopping bag AND my purse. My dad does not hold purses. EVER. He asked me if I was ok, found me a napkin to wipe my mouth, and then we walked to the Tahoe while he still held my purse. That small gesture where he stood by my side and walked with me while holding my purse meant the world to me. He stood by me like he has done throughout my life.
I love you Papi.
