Share something you love about the person you missβ¦π
Today are encouraging us to remember those who have shaped who we are today π₯°
Itβs a day to honour, celebrate and come together, remembering those we love and miss. A happy day that lets us sit with our sadness too.
Itβs takes part the last Monday of May, which is today π So at at 7pm we will raise a glass together. Will you join me?
With all the glorious weather we're having βοΈ my memory today is how on holiday all my Dad needed was a carrier bag π inside his book, glasses and a bank style money bag with his kitty for the day. He'd give my Mum pocket money π€£ and spent hours entertaining me by throwing peseta's (yes I'm that old π€£) in the pool for me to dive for!
He'd sneak my sister and I to a pool bar on the way back from the beach without telling Mum π€£ He'd have a cheeky pint, or two, whilst we were up and down the water slide and then he'd treat us to the best burgers π there for lunch.
Dad would always try the lingo and often mistaken for a local! He would always be involved in the kids clubs, wanting to spend as much time as possible with us. He even volunteered to be pushed into a swimming pool for a pirate β οΈ game they put on even though Dad couldn't swim!!
Being together on holiday was a VERY happy place for us all, I could go on forever with memories of us. On glorious days like today I miss having those times together. I miss seeing him at ease, his smile, his twinkle in his eye, his laugh and his singing.
Would love to hear yours π
