My Dad, My Hero
I know, corny title, but I mean it. My dad is the best guy in the whole wide world (next to my hubby, of course). He's one of a kind. Someone who's stuck by me my whole life and cheered me on through thick and thin. I wish him the happiest of days as he chugs along. After all, there aren't a whole lot of 60 year old Americans who can say they ran 18 miles on a whim, walked from Kittery to Portland, biked 90 miles to 'The Nest Among The Hills' and can eat a bag of potato chips in 2 minutes flat. I hope to accomplish half of those things in my lifetime. Especially the snacking. I love you very much Dad. Thanks for being such a great guy, and HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Sara, What can I say? You are too kind to your old man. Thank you.
Sara,
I am impressed by your narration and also envy the relationship you have with your father.
I probably have the same feelings of admiration and adoring for my father and yet I was never able to state that to him in person or in a way that he would have got a wind of it.
In fact the only conversation I remember having with him revolved around my academic progress, career and accomplishments. And even then it used to be brief the way a school principal talks to his students.
So Charlie, I am really proud of your relationship with your children.
Love,
Nanda
