My dad is a wonderful man who spent a lot of time not only playing with us but also teaching us. He would turn a trip to the grocery store into a lesson on money and economics. Lessons I still us to this day. He would turn time watching tv into a lesson about what commercials are and how they try to get consumers to buy their products. A trip anywhere was a lesson is direction and giving/following directions. Sometimes my sisters and I didn't realize he was teaching us things and other times I am sure we would roll our eye (at least I know I did). I find myself saying things and doing things with the boys and just laugh because I sound like my dad. It is a good thing and I love it but one of these days they are going to roll their eyes at me when I turn everyday situations into a teaching moment.
My dad also has a great love of life and lives it to the fullest! He knows how to work hard, play hard, and he loves competition! Definitely qualities I would love for my children to have!
Thank you dad for being a wonderful father and grandfather. I love you very much! Actually 1 more than that stupid thing Alyse says :)
Happy Father's Day!
