Father’s Day Via Instagram

Instagram is one of those social media platforms that some would say we opened the door too early and allowed our 11-year-old to partake in.  Our concession to this method of communication comes with as many rules and regulations as Obamacare.  One of the caveats would of course be, to monitor her account.  Most of her posts are harmless selfies.

This Sunday when we checked we saw this.

Always be my no 1!

 

An image of her and her dad at a cotillion father – daughter dance earlier in the year.

The picture is precious to me for many reasons

but now, add her comments (minus the spelling errors)

and it is truly priceless!

Libby is at the age when we, as her parents, can be embarrassing for a host of reasons. However, when your dad is not like all the other dads, physically, it seems to stand out.  We are simply, more aware that his Parkinson’s Disease may add to her discomfort or questions from friends.

So, it was refreshing to see her proclaim “no madder” what, he’s her #1 man – for all to know.

 

Until there is a cure we will be the change.
