Elyssa's Best Friend

This past Saturday I took Mark to the airport, and he went back to California. The rest of the day we shopped for Elyssa. She grew out of some pants and she needed cleats for softball. We went all over the place and I even got her a shake from Chick-Fil-A, yet she still didn't seem happy. I kept pressing her trying to find out what was wrong. Then she said, "I hate when dad leaves. Dad is my best friend and I wish he never had to go." I was just heartbroken for her. I was thinking to myself I hope it always stays like this.

Elyssa reminds me so much of Bambi. When she said this I thought of the relationship that Bambi and my dad had. It was just like Elyssa and Mark. It is so special.

I think of my dad a lot especially in March. Bambi if you are reading this, I'm praying for you.
