All little girls love their daddy!
And grandsons love their grandpas, too!
My beloved father celebrated his birthday with us last night at the most whacked out Mexican restaurant. (How can you be a Tequila bar, spend 20" describing all the wonderful drinks offered, and then come back to say that you're out of Tequila?! It boggles the mind.) In honor of his birthday, here are top 10 things I love about my dad:
- Wicked generosity streak
- Decisive and unhesitating drive to action
- Super smart with one of those encyclopedic memories
- Laughs easily with a warm, infectious "ha! ha!"
- Firm grasp of reality and doesn't waste a second on regret
- Crackerjack fisherman and takes me with him if I ask him nicely :)
- Loves my mother the way she deserves to be honored
- Sends me postcards from all his world travels so I can pick and choose where I want to visit when I grow up, too
- Has not one iota of good luck. Not one. Every success is his alone. Success = 99% hard work+ 1% luck? Not Dad. 100% hard work. Doesn't bemoan or question his lot (see #2 and #5 above).
- He can't carry a tune in a bucket, but that boy's got rhythm and can move!
