I was wondering about how to take a photo of today's Photo-a-day subject, My Hero. I was chatting with my younger son this afternoon as he had sent me photos of his newly arrived furniture in his flat. Michael moved to Melbourne 2 weeks ago.
I asked Michael who I should take a photo of as my Hero. He straight up said "Grandad". As I can't get to Perth today to do that, I have posted a picture not taken by me but by my brother in law Roy at my Dad's 80th birthday last year.
My dad is my hero. He has always been there for us. No conditions. We get the odd hint now and then about ringing him more often but he doesn't berate us for our neglect. Us being me and my sisters Debbie and Lee. My dad is wonderful. I love him very much. At age 80, Dad is the full time carer for my step mother Pat who has advanced rheumatoid arthritis. He is patient and caring while looking after her.
Dad is the most gentle, loving and caring man I know apart from my gorgeous husband, Jeff. I am blessed to have 4 wonderful men in my life: my Dad, my husband and my two beautiful sons, Matthew and Michael.
Thank you all for being part of my life.
