Thanks. Now I’m crying. I still have my dad but he’s failing. At least he has lived long enough to see both his grandsons grow up. I hope he at least makes it to next summer so he can see the oldest finish grad school and get married.
“Now, little Sergito, remember to be good or the undead ghost of your abuelo will swoop down on you in the night. What? Don’t you see his spectral form RIGHT THERE?”
I feel like him, now. I’m 73, have many grandchildren and even some great grandchildren. Some I’ve never seen (yet). My youngest son has two, and his youngest is 18. I wonder how much longer I can enjoy them.

The last panel seems to say how the ultimate reward is how she tries to be just as good of a parent.

A beautiful life lesson, and one I wish my own father had bothered to learn.

Lovely strip, thank you! And if you know where I can find a man just like Sergio, point me that direction! :)

The only complaint I have about this beautiful strip is that they didn’t save it for Father’s Day.
