Daddy would be so proud…

Posted on October 20, 2009 by Mary K. Smith

John loved his son, so much.  In fact John’s biggest concern with the cancer wasn’t for himself.  It was for Nathaniel to grow up without a father.

I find myself seeing so many moments with Nathaniel where I just think… John would love to be here to see this moment… to take part… to witness… to share…  to smile… to laugh…

I hope he’s watching us from Heaven and smiling at ‘the boy.’

I videoed Nathaniel eating today.  This is one of those moments that John would have truly loved…  I thought you might enjoy it too…

About Mary K. Smith

I was widowed in July 2009, when I lost my beloved husband, John, to melanoma. Cancer SUCKS. We have a young son who was just a year old when his father died. I live on a small farm in Maryland which is home to horses, cats, and a dog. I started this blog as a way for me to heal, a way to remember my husband, and eventually I'd like to share it with our son so he can see the love that his father had for him, the love that we had for each other, what a great person his father was, and how hard his father fought to live.
