top 10 reasons i love my dad

In honor of the big day on Sunday, I thought I would share a few of the million reasons why my dad rocks - in no particular order...
1. He was the best softball, volleyball, track, you-name-it coach anyone could ask for. He would spend hours working on pitching or hitting, he was always willing to ride bikes, sat through thousands of practices and games, and often drove me to my many activities growing up.
2. He loves to take Jake to the movies - and Jake loves to go with his grandaddy.
3. He has always been willing to take care of Hudson, from day one. Diapers and all. Maybe I should have named them all after my dad. :)
4. He is always willing to help me out with whatever I need - no questions asked.
5. He is at every game or event my kids have, no matter when they are or that they an hour away.
6. He can talk to anyone. I wish I got that from him.
7. He is a mean grilling machine. And he whips up some awesome mashed potatoes.
8. He quit smoking after 45 years.
9. He can answer just about any question or give advice on any issue - and if he doesn't know what he's talking about you would never know it.
10. He has always worked so hard to give me, my mom and my sister everything we need and just about everything we want. Bad thing or not, I was spoiled. At least I recognize it, right?

Happy Father's Day Dad! I love you!
