• saved me today... I was stranded at the pediatrician's office because my car wouldn't start. Dad was there in a jiffy and did something to make it start again.
• is my son's best friend. There's no one he'd rather spend time with... they are quite the pair.
• called to tell Jesse he had won tickets to a basketball game last week; Jesse thought he was being invited to go along. He wasn't. Dad wanted Diego to go.
• likes his KU, so we'll be eating at home tonight so he can catch the game.
• supplies his entire family with enough fish to eat throughout the summer.
• watches my kids every Wednesday afternoon so I can go to work. And even changes diapers.
• was a youth pastor... until I hit high school. And then, he'd had enough.
• is always watching out for his family.
• can be very frugal, but extremely generous with his kids!
• is stubborn. And passed it to his oldest child... they butt heads frequently. But they still love each other.
• is 59 today! Happy Birthday, Daddy. I love you!
