When one whom you love dies, the day of their birth and the day of their death will never be the same. Happy Birthday, Daddy! asks the questions that we all want to ask, but seldom voice aloud. How do I celebrate my daddy's birthday? What is he doing today? Is this day special in heaven? Who is he with? Is he aware of others in heaven? Does he know what I am thinking and doing to celebrate him today? There are many things we cannot know about heaven until we are there and it can be comforting to use our imaginations until we know for sure. Questions are healthy and we need to look for answers. When answers are not to be found, it is ok to dream and consider possible answers, while leaving the final details up to God. God has given us vivid imaginations to help us through those times of unanswered questions and Happy Birthday, Daddy! helps us to use this wonderful gift from God. This book is for anyone whose loved one is in heaven. No matter how long they have been there, no matter the circumstances of their arrival, no matter your age or relationship, the pain and loss are real. Every year, there are two days which leave you in a feeling of nostalgia and a shadow of melancholy. The birthday of the one you love and the day they died are forever changed once the one you love is no longer living here on earth. I pray that you have a relationship with Jesus and will be reunited with your loved ones someday. Until then, I pray that you will celebrate the day they were born into this life and also celebrate the day they were born into heaven.

Help James, Marisol, Shaina, Mommy and Binyah Binyah prepare for Daddy's birthday party.

“This impassioned book invites readers to the deep end of life where authentic soul work and human transformation become pressing concerns.” —Publishers Weekly 2019 Independent Publisher Book Awards Gold Medalist in the Aging/Death & Dying Category From bestselling author Parker J. Palmer comes a brave and beautiful book for all who want to age reflectively, seeking new insights and life-giving ways to engage in the world. “Age itself,” he says, “is no excuse to wade in the shallows. It’s a reason to dive deep and take creative risks.” Looking back on eight decades of life—and on his work as a writer, teacher, and activist—Palmer explores what he’s learning about self and world, inviting readers to explore their own experience. In prose and poetry—and three downloadable songs written for the book by the gifted Carrie Newcomer—he meditates on the meanings of life, past, present, and future. With compassion and chutzpah, gravitas and levity, Palmer writes about cultivating a vital inner and outer life, finding meaning in suffering and joy, and forming friendships across the generations that bring new life to young and old alike. “This book is a companion for not merely surviving a fractured world, but embodying—like Parker—the fiercely honest and gracious wholeness that is ours to claim at every stage of life.” —Krista Tippett, New York Times-bestselling author of Becoming Wise “A wondrously rich mix of reality and possibility, comfort and story, helpful counsel and poetry, in the voice of a friend . . . This is a book of immense gratitude, consolation, and praise.” —Naomi Shihab Nye, National Book Award finalist
