Today is my dad’s birthday. He is pretty much the coolest.
The older I get, the more I realize how alike my dad and I are. And not just our extraordinary taste in music. We have similar personalities and sometimes I’ll catch myself saying things to my kids (“Don’t stop until you’re done!”) or at work and hear him in my mind saying the exact. same. thing. He recognizes it too, I know, and when I wrote this oddball post filed under “Emily is Neurotic,” he linked to it on facebook and said “Is there any doubt this woman is my daughter?”
Yep, we’re two neurotic peas in a pod.
My dad is the person I go to when I need solid, logical advice. I’ve called him up on many occasions and blurted out, “I’m having a crisis.” And he always makes it better.
He’s the best.
Happy birthday, Dad. I love you!
He’s a keeper. Happy Birthday Uncle Dan!
And he dances a wicked jig to bluegrass in the front yard too!! Happy Birthday!!
Your dad was one of my heroes in High School, Sunday School, and Church Camp. He was and remains, pretty cool!
UP
And he has a sense of humor which is both strange and hilarious! A solid guy…great brother.
