I was never close to own father after he and my mom divorced when I was 8. So, I made darned sure to do things with my son but like you I know there are too many things left undone. I have to thank you for that post, it may not have been your intention but it is a heartfelt reminder for me to get more of them done with my son.<br /><br />All the best,<br />Glenn BGlenn Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16677859688487279914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20147126.post-66255388007565792972016-10-02T09:54:34.330-05:002016-10-02T09:54:34.330-05:00I sure miss my 37.
