10 years (Jan 8, 2009)

January 8th marked 10 years since my father passed away. I know he would really adore Darcy and that she would adore him back. I hope he can somehow know her from wherever he is and know how happy I am.  Kevin and I had a beer in Dad's honour.

I think Kevin and my dad would get along well. My dad actually knew Kevin "back in the day", but back then Kevin was a potty-mouthed teenager in my father's disapproving eyes. (Not that I had any interest in him then, to be honest; I was dating Kevin's friend's little brother, Jeff.) Today, however, I think they would have gotten along famously, maybe too much so, actually. I have a feeling I would be a Laurentian Hotel widow!
