Tyler in charge!

Me, Leah, Annie and Donna all
left town last weekend to go and meet
the newest member of our family,
Miss Addison Grace. 
Upon planning this trip I was really
worried about who would be there for
Pops.
When I realized that Tyler would be
home from college when we left
I felt a sigh of relief.
I knew that he would be the one that
would be in charge while we were gone.
Sad but true that a 19 year old barely adult
is the one that I would put in charge of my 80
year old ailing father.
With 5 other siblings to choose from wouldn't
you think......
NOPE!
I pick Tyler.
He has always loved his Papa so much and they
were always the best of buddies.  Memories
of early morning walks and trips to the Aitkin
bakery are I'm sure vivid in Tyler's mind.
He spent quite a bit of one on one time with
Papa and the love and respect he has for him
shows.
I'm so proud of Tyler and the awesome young
man he has become.
I know that both my kids would not have
things any other way when it comes to caring
for their Papa. 
Their only wish would be to rid him of this terrible
disease.

i miss my daddy
