homemade ice cream
I am making ice cream right now and it makes me think of daddy. Wish i had the blue round dish pan that he always used to hold the freezer. I know that I probably used more salt with my ice than he did but I think my ice cream might freeze a little quicker than his did. Dad was a man in my life that always kept me guessing. He wanted things done in a certain way and living with all of his girls his needs probably were overlooked many times. I loved the dad and grandpa that he grew into. He seemed to have more time and more love when we were all grown up. I still have a very vivid picture of eric and sara snuggling on his hospital bed after he had his stroke. All of them were so comfortable just being together. He ran a LOUD ship sometimes but I always knew that he loved me and wanted the best for me.....Happy Fathers Day to our dad.
My ice cream is slowing down. It will be done soon and I will be tasting it just like dad used to let us do.
LOVE YOU ALL
Mom, I LOVED this! Thank you for passing it on. (I'm sorry I'm just now commenting.) I really enjoy hearing more about Grandpa and Grandma and how they "were". Our impressions of them were so incomplete with our young child perspectives.
