Texts I wish I could have sent you Dad...
I miss you.
I love you.
They finally got one of the new baggage claims up and going at CLT. Redoing that old area where I waited forever last trip now. Bags got there before me for a change!

What is the dang check mark you use for you phone lock screen pattern?
None of us can remember it.
Happy Easter Dad! I love you.
Why didn't you tell me you had close captioning on your phone?
I would have called your phone to talk to you and mom.
I forgot to tell you I got you books about jazz, Gilbert and Sullivan, and Little Museums at the library book sale.
I don't know what to do with them now...
Mom needs you. We need you. Why aren't you here?
I bought some plants at church today!
What kind of soil should I get?
Planted them today! I think I waited too long...the lavender isn't looking so good.

I also repotted that daisy plant you and Mom sent me over a year ago.
Can't believe it's still alive. We'll see if it survives this.
(Yes, that is a giant bag of soil. Don't judge.)

So... of 5 sunflowers and 4 lavender plants...1 sunflower has survived and one lavender is kind of sort of maybe holding on?

How do I keep the bugs from eating my sunflower leaves!?!
Google tells me to spray it with soap water. I'll try that. Wish I could ask you instead of Google.
I miss you.
There is a bud on my daisy plant! Picture is blurry but it's there...

Soapy water isn't helping but the sunflower is still growing!
Look how TALL!

Have you put the sign I got you for Christmas in the garden yet?
No? Maybe we can put out when I am home for your internment.
You should watch this Hank Green video.
Also, he's got a comedy special about cancer coming out.
I haven't deleted your contact from the favorites list in my car yet. Still there. Top of the alphabetical list. Still with the 7 I added when I had my first Nokia phone and that was the shortcut for calling you.
I can't seem to make myself delete it.
Miss you so much.

Do you know what these pink flowers in my neighbor's yard are?

You always worried if I was having fun and enjoying myself. My friends helped me have a really good birthday.
I wish I could hear you sing "and many moooooooore" one more time.
I joined a church this weekend.
Wasps are building a nest on the INSIDE of my glass door.

Yes, I still have the spray from when you were here last.
I will spray it when I get home from work.
Helping out at a church BBQ this weekend. Been a while since I've done that!
Look at ALL THE BUTTERFLIES in Olivet's butterfly garden! Are you jealous?
How are your butterfly plants doing?
Can I get rid of that red chair now? I only kept it because it's where you liked to sit when you visited.
Despite the cat bed that lives on it, it is "your" chair. Makes it harder to decide now.
Plus, you aren't here to help me move it or take it somewhere.
There are new buds on my sunflower plant!
Even if the bugs are still eating the leaves. :-(

I miss you. I love you.
I finally get to see Six! I'm going with friends while I'm in Chicago.
Just found out they are front row seats!!! Can you imagine?
What do you want for Father's Day?
A cheesy, sappy, sad blog post? Good. Cause that's what you are getting.
I miss you. I love you.
