I have so many wonderful men in my life. And by wonderful I mean A-MAZING. Have you met my husband? He is the most likable person you will ever meet. Nick is sincere, that might be his best trait. And he just made me dinner and put Scarlett in her PJ's. Have you met my father? He loves his children more than any man I know. I love that he still gives all his adult children a hug and kiss when he see them. I love seeing him play with Scarlett and beg to wake her up if she is asleep. He did that once with me and it melts my heart.
But... today I pick Wilford "Wilf", Nick's grandpa. When I first started hanging out with Nick we went over to his house for dinner. I have known the Strobelts for most of my life so you would think dinner would be easy. But I was so nervous. I wanted them to like me and see me for more than that naughty 10 year old girl. The first person to come up and give a great hug was Wilf. He then proceeded to ask "how's it shaken bacon". I asked him the same question in which he randomly answered "south of the border and east of the peco-peco". Right there I loved that man. Ask him is age and he will say "95 and still alive". Yes 95 and he runs around with the great-grand kids like its nothing. He is quick with a joke and always gives me that same big hug. Have you met my father -law Ron? He is the most kind person I have ever known. He is always in a positive/happy mood and serves his family and the church endlessly. It takes a very special father to raise a son like Ron. Wilf is a very, very special father!
Happy Father's Day
Scarlett loves Wilf. Probably because she sneaks up on his lap and he gives her all the desert she wants. Take a look at that chocolaty face.
