Daddy Dearest

My aunt and uncle were visiting my parents (when I say parents, I mean my grandparents--they adopted and raised me--so they are also my uncle's parents) over the weekend. My aunt went into my dad's room (my parents sleep separately, because my dad kicks and punches in his sleep, due to his Parkinson's) to get something from his mini fridge. Apparently, he has a picture of me on the table next to his fridge. My aunt asked my mom why he doesn't display pictures of any of his other six children. My mom just said, "He has always carried Heather's picture around with him." I remember he used to carry it around in his wallet, back when I still lived at home. I had no idea he still does this, 10+ years later. I have the best dad in the world!
