Today is my Dad's 96th birthday. I have been so thankful to have grown up in a home where both parents love me and each other. As I see our cultural declining with so many adults with emotional issues due to never feeling loved and appreciated, the more I realize how precious this legacy is.
After my mom passed away a few years ago, my dad found the letters he wrote to my mom while he was fighting in the Pacific during WWII. He has spent the last few years compiling stories and experiences from that time. He also included these letters. They each were signed "With Love and Kisses on Every Wave."
So, Happy Birthday Dad. We love you!
