Field Trip...

Elisha goes on her first field trip tomorrow and for some reason it is a flood of emotions for me. My Dad went of every field trip I ever had. He worked nights, and would get off work and come whether it was the zoo, saltwater state park, Wild Waves, he was always there. I have lots pictures of me curled up in his armpit while he slept on the bus ride home (thank you to the parents who captured this). I would have loved nothing more than my Dad to have been able to go with Elisha on this particular Field trip to the Nature center, to enjoy smashed peanut butter and jelly sandwiches or baloney and cheese-So, thanks Dad for such special memories, I wish today I could just curl up in your arms. Elisha told me that she thinks Grandpa is going all sorts of field trips in heaven and I think that she is right....
I miss you Dad!!! Love, Jul
