I was my fathers fav child ..we shared the same sign ..Pisces ..none of my other 8 siblings connected with my father like I did …
Because we shared the same sign we had the same common interest…we loved music together every weekend when he was off we played music at the big table in the dining room ..he had his chair at the head of the table
And my seat was next to his ..I was the DJ ..I chose the songs ..and he’d always tell me how it was the perfect song and it’s amazing I chose that one
I’d refill his cup with ice and he drank his whisky 🥃
He analyzed the songs he talked About life..he passed me his wisdom ❤️

One day my daddy was on the back porch looking at his garden through the window..it was in the middle of winter
He called me back there and said “ Look” and In the middle of the snow filled garden there was one single rose there.. and it was so beautiful.. He said “can you believe that” ?!
And we just stood there not saying a word ..daddy and daughter looking .. marveling at this beautiful rose growing in a bed of cold and snow..
I’ll never ever ever forget that moment we shared
And I use that moment in my mind to show myself that beautiful things are still possible and able to flourish even in a cold cold world .. a rose can still grow in a bed of snow
I’ll never forget the time my daddy came to town for my brothers wedding ..he stayed at my apartment..I was like maybe 23…
It was awesome because out of all my siblings in town ..they had big beautiful houses ..I’m just starting out in an apartment but he chose to stay with me during the time he was in town ❤️
He came in and my boyfriend was there ..I was about to hang up my daddy’s coat and he said no ..he told Marcus to do it..
So he takes my daddy’s jacket and my dad walks off … Marcus looks at my holding the jacket lifting it up and down as if it’s something heavy in it ..
I didn’t think nothing of ..later that night he told me he knows my daddy was packing some heat 😂❤️
And I don’t know if he did or didn’t but that’s always been so hilarious to me …
If he did ..he did that so Marcus knew not to fuq around and find out nothing ❤️😭
He was a sharpshooter among other things ..he retired from a government job after 46 yrs.. they even sent someone to speak at my fathers funeral….And he had a 21 gun salute at his burial ❤️
He was later cremated ..he’s with my step mom at a military cemetery..
My father payed every bill ..and he paid them on time .....I never needed for nothing as a child ..and I didn’t hear the word no until I was like 13..and I didn’t even trip ..
My father treated each of his children according to their personality..
My father knew I was soft hearted ..he never was mean to me ..I never had to get whoopings lol
Just my father being disappointed in me would send me into tears for hours ..
So I always did my best to make him proud ❤️
I had money in my pocket at all times ..I had enough money to buy me and my friends restaurant food before school 😂❤️ Nicks pizza puffs @8 am baby !
I grew up being raised by a real man ..a real fuqn man ..men that they don’t even make anymore ..
They don’t even make men like my daddy no more…
How could I not be awesome and I was raised by that man ❤️
