It has been exactly one year since my father died. This past year has gone by so quickly -- so much has changed in my life. It's like I blinked, and it was spring again, and the iris bloomed, and I remembered.
I wasn't as close to my dad as I would have liked to have been. We had a difficult relationship when I was a teenager. As we both grew older (and both grew up) we also grew apart. Time and depression and a busy life with babies and husbands took their toll. I had jobs and responsibilities and the Craft. And I have regret. I loved my father very, very much.
I am sorry, Daddy that I didn't take more time.
I miss you.
