The week before my wedding, my Daddy was admitted to the hospital. The doctors stated his condition would require surgery and at least two weeks recovering in the hospital. Miraculously, his condition changed within a few days and he was released on Tuesday in enough time to walk me down the aisle.
When people told my mom they “knew” God wasn’t going to allow him to miss my wedding, she responded gratefully yet humbly with a statement I’ll never forget: “It won’t always be someone else’s husband. It won’t always be someone else’s daddy.”
She couldn’t have been more right.
While that wasn’t our case in 2003, it is our situation in 2020.
Today, it was her husband and it was my daddy.
We are in unfamiliar territory yet we are not alone. We have felt the love and support of family and friends both near and far. We have always been able to saturate ourselves in daddy’s light. Please continue to cover my mom, brother, Victor, the boys and me as we attempt to walk in the light of his love from a distance.
