I did good

Didn't we have fun? I did and how ODD is that?? I drank THREE whole Bud Lights, Steve. I think I have a hangover this morning. My kids got really lucky in the dad department. He's smart, engaging, (is that en GAG ing), he hunts, fixes cars - engine and body work, appliances, rips out bushes with a single tug with his truck AND leaps tall buildings in a single bound. From Betsy to Cara he's always been there. If you ask our kids how many times he's been mad at them they will tell you once or twice and can recall the actual incident. That's how few it's been. Of course this is open to change after they read it. A lot of the dads with handicapped kids jump ship. Not Robert. He has never wavered. Ever. A lot of dads jump ship with normal kids. Not Robert. Again, never wavered, ever. I think they appreciate him for all he's done. I know they love him. They can laugh at him in front of him and know he might not like it because the circumstances are different in his mind. Of course, he'll forgive and forget or give up. They can call him for anything anytime. Even their friends have called for help. What more could you want in a dad? He's got guns and they like that. He has teeth missing and that just adds to his charm. He's from a scary place in West Virgina and they like that too. That just adds to his mystery when they talk about him. His grade could be nothing less than a triple A and more. Our little birds have been blessed and I use that word sparingly in my life because it means, well, you know what it means. I think they know they are lucky too. My own dad didn't think I was making such a good choice in the beginning. That's how dads are. Moms are compared to mother bears in the protection department. Only difference is they will give someone a chance. And you guys should kiss the ground you walk on that you have one sane parent. You do have to show you have only the best intentions in mind when it comes to his daughters. He isn't quick to give a guy the okay and I know this because we talk. He is unconditional love in a basket with a big camouflage bow on it. He's been the best and will continue to be the best. A regular Ward Cleaver, with missing teeth and a gun. So Mr. Don Keagle, admit it. I did good.
