Daddy's Girl - Happy Fathers Day!



Daddy's Girl
-Christine McNamara

When you were young, pony-tailed,
face full of playful freckles,
were you a daddy's girl?
I was. I still am.
Did you look to him for your security,
for love and attention,
for the understanding, and the patience you lacked
as a child?
My daddy was the center of my small world,
the focus of my affections,
the star that lit my life, shining bright.
Shining still in my heart.
The years have led me here,
weathered with maturity and responsibilities,
and I see more clearly now.
The hardships, burdens of love,
and all the small sacrifices he made for me,
for our family.
He created stability, a place to call home.
All the photographs I browse through
of a child long forgotten, scarcely remembered
smiling, so happy and so loved.
The mere thought of becoming that role model
is enough to send me cowering, afraid...
looking for guidance.
Turning to my father and my more for support,
advice, wise counsel, and for approval.
Grown up, I see differently now...
A new perspective of a man I have always known.
My heart is full, my emotions overpowering
just in the certainty of that bond.
He's been there for me through all the conflicts
helping me over the rough, ragged stones
of growing up.
My respect for him is unending,
faith is unbound, and love is unquestioning.
Even in the midst of all my imperfections, he is lenient,
ignoring the pitfalls, the downfalls, the shortcomings,
he just accepted me as I was, as I am.
The sheer purity of it leaves me awe-struck
and it lifts me up, it holds my head a little higher,
it keeps me in balance,
harmonizing with the world around me
beautifully, like an inspired masterpiece from the soul
of an honest man.
I am honored to know him, to love him, to be of him.
He's my hero, and I am his daughter, his little girl.

Thought this had a wonderful sentiment!

Happy Father's Day to all the Dad's out there and for all that you do!

Summer Nights


Cedros Art Walk is a super fun event held usually monthly in the early evening in Solana Beach in the design district on Cedros Ave. Each "Summer Night" tends to be slightly different, but most of the galleries are open late for passerbyers. The draw, simply put is Mr. Wade Koniakowsky and his gallery Ocean Art. He has a beachy/island style that is sure to fit any Southern California home. Even if you are not in the mood to buy, his work is very inspiring. You will be able to check out some of his work and his new gallery location @ 346 S. Cedros Ave.
Another fun touch is that you can bring a t-shirt from home and get a free block print from the artist - I may even bring a tote-bag or a baby onesie...rebel I know. This is a fun night out with art, music and refreshments! yummy
