It seems like deja vu, huh? Every now and then for special days dedicated to mothers and fathers, Mom has asked me to write for her about how our Father's Day without Dad went.
First, Mom went to church by herself without her younger kids going with her, so I went over to spend the time with her during Sacrament and Sunday School. She was really happy that I was there with her. I even drew a nice portrait of what Dad might possibly be like up in heaven.
After church, we had some groovy with corn flakes for both breakfast and lunch. As promised as a new tradition, we watched Dad's favorite movie, Eddie and the Cruisers 2: Eddie Lives! And after that, we watched the first Eddie and the Cruisers. From what we've learned while and after watching that one, Mom was right to say that Dad preferred the second movie, because it wasn't fully confusing.
For dinner, I found a bag of Dad's famous chili that he made himself back in 2024. It was as tasty as it ever was before. Now it's really rare. After a little while of relaxing after dinner and Mom making skirts for Crafty and Craftsman, we went down to the cemetery and found Dad's grave.
Mom and Curly read two new children's books that are based on Father's Day. Like, Chicka Chicka, I Love Dad. Afterwards, we played a few songs that reminded us of Dad. For example, I played Not All Heroes Wear Capes by Owl City. That song really reminded me of the time I played for Dad and he didn't quite hear it all, probably because he was preoccupied, but some of the times, he did admit that he really liked that song, because of me.
We still miss you, Dad. I hope you're having a good Father's Day up in heaven.
