Give it Back for One More Day

Since the moment I woke up today, all I have wanted to do was give up on everything and cry.

Jazmyne Danielle and Daddy after her graduation from Randolph-Macon College.

But... I can't allow myself to be weak in front of people.

There were so many times at the game, I just wanted to cry.

It took everything in me not to loose it watching the dad pass the honor down to his son.

Things are just not the same.

I know I don't have that privilege anymore. Don't get me wrong, you have left sooo much and I am forever grateful.

Honestly, I would give it all back for just one more day.

I don't think you're ever ready when someone is called on a vacation.

Fireworks at the National Harbor in Maryland.

I was hoping to surprise you like I did before.

Maybe if I had told you, you could have held on for another week.

I know I am being selfish and I deserve the right to be.

You hardly ever told me "NO" and now I am getting them left and right.

When I am able to get my emotions out to you, I feel so much better.

My desire to cry goes away and a weight is lifted off my shoulders.

Love you too!

P.S: Happy 4th!
