Happy birthday in Heaven to my Daddy ❤️

Published on by NAWatermanLeave a comment

Happy birthday in heaven to my amazing daddy.  My dad would have been 72 years old today.  I would have been calling him on the phone to say, “Happy birthday young man.” That was our thing.  I would call him young man every birthday and every time he would cut his hair. 

Can you believe this video was taken a year before he passed away?  I don’t know what made me record this video of my dad and little brother building my shed in the backyard.  I never record anything he did around my house and believe me, he did a lot.  It’s just ironic that something told me to record that moment and I’m glad I did.  I would have never thought in a million years that a year later he would be gone.  Anyway, no sadness today.  Just sharing a beautiful memory of my dad being a dad ❤️

Happy birthday daddy.  I love you always and forever!

My Fur Baby, Wally 🐕

Let me tell you about my Fur baby, Wally.  My husband, whom I met in 2021 (a story for another day), had a beautiful chocolate Labrador.  Wally was his baby, as he had Wally when he was 5 weeks old.  I’ve seen photos and Wally was the cutest puppy.

I was always scared of dogs. When I started dating my now husband, I felt I was in a dilemma.  I didn’t want to go to his home because I knew he had a dog.  When we became serious, I told him he had to make a choice between me and his dog.  He couldn’t make a decision and asked me not to make him choose.  I could tell this dog meant a lot to him, so I asked to meet Wally.  I told him to bring Wally to my house so I can meet him in person. 

First dinner with Wally

Needless to say, I became obsessed with Wally.  I immediately became his dog momma!  I loved that dog so much.  People would tell my husband that I love Wally more than I did him.

I could go on and on about this special dog.  For now I just want to say…

Happy birthday in rainbow heaven to my yoga partner, breakfast buddy and protector.  If you ever had or have a dog that you are close to…then you know.

They are super loyal, lovable  and will always be by your side.  I could count on Wally to get up at 6:30am and lay at the end of the hallway every morning waiting for me.  That was our bonding time.  And when I would go into the office, he knew on those days to get up at 5:30.

There will never be another Wally.  Unique and one-of-a-kind…the best dog ever ❤️
