I spent the day with my daddy today. Spending the day means getting up at the crack of dawn...so I set my alarm and I did. I met him at the diner. I groggily ordered coffee while he chatted and ate breakfast. We left after his tummy was full and my eyes were open. We went to the auction. We browsed what the seller's were selling and decided that it would be too long to wait for the doors we saw. He sat on a bench while I looked at the fruit market. He held my hand as we looked at the odds and ends that were in booths. He gets winded easily these days, so we walked slowly, and I savored the feel of my hand in his. It still fits perfectly there, just like when I was little and he walked slowly for me. We went to a few rummage sales and stopped in town for lunch. We laughed. We talked, and then we laughed some more, all the while I listened. He dropped me off at my house and I gave him a kiss on the cheek. I spent the day with my dad today, and I am smiling....
love me later~tj
