So I had a new Kay kit making it's debut tomorrow so I wanted to do a LO for her for sneak peeks...and I just felt the need to use thanksgiving pics so of course I went to last year's...my last with my daddy and I just blubbered like a baby while I made the whole thing :crying: Good thing I used a template or I would never have made it through it probably. There are days I almost forget he's not there you know? and now with the holidays coming up , especially Halloween which was his birthday (we never celebrated Halloween, it was always just Papa's birthday!) so what will we do now? It's just sad and I wanted some shoulders to lean on :(
 
I totally understand, my dad has been gone a lot of years and fathers day still bugs me! So a big hug to you!!!..... but something I'd like to share that I hope helps a little........it's really too soon right now, but I believe there will come a time when scrapping older pictures of him will give you joy, not sadness. You will always miss him, but the scrapping will help relive happy memories
 
Awww {{hugs}} Amy. I'm sorry. I lost my dad 15 yrs ago when I was a teenager and I think about him everyday. {{Hugs}}
 
Aww Im sorry. I know how that feels about Halloween. My neice was born on halloween too and I get really sad every year around that time and she passed a little over 16 years ago. She would have celebrated her 21st birthday this year. I wish tehre was something I could say but the only thing that really helps is time and talking about how you feel.
 
I'm so sorry you're hurting, Amy....holidays are especially hard when you miss loved ones so much. Hope you're very happy to have such a lovely page with him for your scrapbooks now. :) {{HUGS}}
 
((HUGS)) I am sorry Amy...this yr is going to be super rough for me as it will be the first year of holiday's without my Granny...i just can't imagine it without her.
 
{{{{{{{{{{{{{HUGS}}}}}}}}}}}}}} I am right there with you girl...it will be 5 years on Monday since we lost my Mom and I am really sad too. We shall be sad together my friend.
 
Aww sweet Amy!! I know how sad this is for you. I think you should still have Papa's birthday!! Maybe you could celebrate his life and tell memorable stories of him.
 
I can understand and I'm so sorry :( My mom passed away four years ago and I still can't get up the nerve to scrap one photo of the two of us. Reading your OP though, maybe I should do that soon. Thanks for your courage in sharing this :)
