Freeze, congratulations on your sobriety! I think it is wonderful that you have realized true unconditional love. What is also amazing and wonderful is that you shared this with us all. Thank you.

The Princess woke up with a bad cold this morning, courtesy of my two grandsons that brought it along with them! *ugh* My daughter and the rest just left a while ago and I am, once again, sitting quietly in the living room...alone.

That, my dear friends, is a joy that I do hope each of you can share someday. And now....silence. Just this computer and the TV. Serenity returns.
This holiday was a gentle reminder of what is really important to me. Family. The love of a daughter that had such a terrible father years ago. The cheer of two adorable grandsons that remind me SO much of me and my brothers. The warmth of an evening by the fire, laughing and remembering that no matter what has happened, there is always redemption. There is love. There is family.
Yesterday, I celebrated something else that is so very important to me. My fourth year of sobriety. To have my daughter here for that milestone was extra special. For you see, she was the one that endured a childhood without a dad. She had to see things a child should never see. And yet, she loves me. We come together on this special day and we are father and daughter. Something we were not, all those years ago. I treasure this time of my life more than anything. Through clear, sober eyes, I see the woman that was once my daughter. I see the mother that was once my daughter. I see the wife that was once my daughter. And now, I can see the man that was not a dad, but has been redeemed, and I am proud. I am thankful.

Such kind and generous words from dear, dear friends. I would only hope that I am able to live up to such lofty opinions! Honestly, I cannot begin to tell you how much I appreciate all of your wonderful comments. They mean so very much to me. This truly is an accomplishment, especially given just how low I was way back then. I do not exaggerate when I tell you I was a true low-life.
The gifts I have received from you all today are very special to me. My very, VERY deepest and most sincere thanks to joe. She knows why. I really think this has been a great holiday. I am SO glad I have all of you with whom to share it! |

Hey! Hello Joe...
Thanks, good to be back. What was wrong with your kitten!??
Congrats on the bike -- do you have snow tires on it? (Oops, guess you don't 'em in Africa! lol...)
Silly me...

Freeze,
You are forever a gentleman & a scholar.
Enjoy the fruits of your labours, as it sounds like you deserve it.
Some fathers are simply content to continue blaming their children for their own offensive actions in the past, and therefore spend many solitary holidays with no daughters around at all... Not that I know anything about that ... !
It takes a brave person to admit mistakes and learn from them, this is what makes it easy for those they have offended to forgive and move on. Until that is done, nothing changes. You were the catalyst that made your present contentment happen.
You should be proud of yourself. I am. (Your daughter and grandchildren are lucky, too...)
