Dear Mike,
I was just re-reading some of these, they’re all wonderful & I’m so proud that you’re my daughter’s husband!
This story in particular is a reminder today, with no holiday or anything but I think you already know by watching myself with Jen.;
It will ALWAYS feel like that, no matter how old your babies get.
“specially’ when 1st one leaves home to go live their life. (no one told me that in advance) But she left, I cried often but that’s me, as you know.
I’m so very comfortable w/the fact that if she has to be so far away from Alaska, she’s with all of you and life is good and happy for you all. What a wonderful family.
You are a great son-in-law! A great Daddy AND a great man.
I love you all and miss you so much.
Lori

@Dan
It certainliy is painfull. It’s even worse now that her visits have gone from 2.5 months a year all the way down to 2 weeks a year.

Thanks for the sympathies.

It must be very hard to cope with your daughter living a plane ride away. I feel for you. Dan's last blog post..A cigarette by any other name would still smell as foul

@Secret Agent Mama,
Thank you Mishelle. That means a lot. I hope that you (reader/s) never have to go through this. It is heart rending.

Mike,

It’s with a tear on my cheek that I write this response to you, for I can feel your sadness, your pain, and your pride. I don’t know what else to say, other than she’s your daughter and even though you aren’t together all the time, she loves you and vice versa.

Sincerely,
Mishelle
