The things you do with your dad

[Texasm1976]

Sailor on here got me thinking that do you ever dread the day you can't do things with your dad or watch him do things that he loves to do but can't anymore. Like today watching him wade fish. He is 68 and loves it but I know there will be a day when he can't. I don't want it to happen but hey it's all in gods hands. So just saying do all you can with your dad while you can.

My father spent 15 years in the state penitentiary and we both missed out on a lot Wish I could have those years back. He has been out for 7 years and were as close as any father and son could be

Miss mine everyday and every time I look in the mirror.

Be thankful for the time you get to spend with him. My dad never spent time with us and until last week I only tolerated him, now I don't want anything to do with him. Your blessed to have a dad that you can spend time with.

I cherish every minute with mine, and dread the day when he's gone. He made me the man I am today, and I can never thank him enough for all that he has done for me. He will be 71 this year and my little boy is 7 months, so he better stick around for a while. LOTS of more memories to make!

Dad will be 73 this summer. Thanks to him I know how to hunt and fish. Enjoy every minute we spend together. His heart is not the best however got a good report from the doctor on Wednesday. It's all in God's hands but hope to have many more years together.

Spend all the time you can with him

This is my dad and his first crossbow kill

I dread that day. I try to do as much with my Dad as I can. You can't take a day for granted! This is me and him and his 2011 buck from Coryell County. The first deer that he has taken in 6 years and the only time I've been with him when he pulled the trigger on a good buck. Couldn't have been more proud of him! He's gotten to where he would rather just watch than shoot unless its a good one. I'm thankful often that I was there with him.

I lost my dad 10/10/08. I was in south Texas on a bow hunt when I got the message.

That was a long ride back home to Tyler.

I miss him terribly...

Hunt and fish with mine alot! We also do as much as possible.

My father passed away in '06 at 57.

He was my father, friend, mentor, boss, outdoor buddy, and the greatest man I've ever met! I'll never fill his shoes or the void he left behind, so I strive to pound out a new path that resembles the one he walked.

I think of him often and it kills me that he wasn't here to hold his first and only grandson, a year ago.

For those of you whom still have your pops... Don't let a day go by that you could have spent in the field with him.

Everything I know has come from my father
