POW#2: Snapshots
I don't have a photo of the picture I'd like to talk about, but a photo that means a lot to me is a picture of my dad, sister, brother, and me when we were all really young. In the picture my dad is holding us all together and he has a broad smile across his face while me and my siblings are all laughing in his arms being squished together. I really like this picture because it reminds me of my dad, and everytime I look at it I just feel really fortunate to have somebody that cares about me and my brother and sister so much. I'm extremely close to my father and I don't think I could ever really type enough or say enough to explain how much I respect my dad, love him, and enjoy his company. My dad recently took a job in Arkansas so that my entire family could be more comfortable. While he has moved away my parents are still together, but I only get to see my dad on weekends now. And sometimes work keeps him from comming up every weekend, so sometimes I only see my dad a few times a month. It's actually very difficult for me not to be able to see him so much, but I need to remember that however hard it is for us, it's harder for him. He constanstly calls and texts my siblings and I just to see how we're doing and just trys to check up on us like he was here. But it's no secret to my family that my dad really misses us and I know it cause him a lot of stress to work down there. So I feel like my dad makes a lot of sacrafices for my family. But relating this to the picture, anytime I see the photo it's a reminder to me to show how much my dad cares about us, misses us, wants to come back, and just in general what a wonderful father he is. So I wish I had the picture to upload, but I'm not sure where it is now.
