This is very hard. My first one without my dad. Very sad and I've been crying all day.

This is also my first Father's Day without my Dad. My mom said we were still celebrating Father's Day, so she has made a tribute dinner for him and my husband remembered me and my Father's ritual, so I woke up this morning to Starbucks coffee and French Toast. That made me happy that he did that. It is also just days after the three month mark of his passing. But I am holding it together, barely. The day is young but I don't want to forget about him by keeping myself busy, I want to remember him, all day. To honor him. So, that's what I am going to do, no matter how much I cry and how hard it is for me.

My first too. Today in church we were singing ...children of our heavenly father and. When got to nestling bird...a bird flew into the church. We think that was a sign from my Dad.

I lost my beloved father last Monday, June 11th. Yesterday was his funeral mass. I feel so empty. I miss him so much. Even though I know we all have to go through this horrible feeling eventually the pain is so intense that it feels as if you are the only one in the universe going through it. I wake up every morning thinking that maybe this was all a bad dream and that he is still alive. I go throughout the day feeling like a zombie. At times I'm calm and serene then those unbearable waves of sorrow hit me and it rips me apart. I offer hugs to all of you going through this painful realization that our dads are not physically with us on this Father's Day.
