My dad turned 72 today. The older I get, the more I realize how fortunate I am to have been raised in the safety of this man's arms. I grew up with him looking at me lovingly and having high expectations of me. The smirk on my face tells me that I was pretending to be asleep but what I know for sure was that I was indeed content.
Being raised by this man continues to be an awesome journey. I love him more and more each day.
You know? He's just one helluva guy.
That's all I've got.

Happy Thursday.
