This will always make me think of you, Dad. (Well, not the picture. Pardon the goofy looking woman.) These simple words of wisdom always hanging on your fridge. I think this Father’s Day, of all the things I am grateful for about you, I want to thank you for the token words of wisdom you have shared with me over the years. I know we have lived in two different cities, and states for that matter, for the past four years. I know we don’t get to spend as many hours in a day together as we would like. I know we’ve learned how to make excellent use of the phone. But every single time you share a bit of that large dose of wisdom you’ve been given, I lap it right up and let it soak right in; letting it meet me right where I am, as I believe you intend it (thanks to those crazy good listening skills you got, you manage that one well). Take a look at these good times and imagine all the great ones in between!
Maybe Father’s Day 1990?
