My Dad is the coolest!
Yup, that's right. My dad took me to the US Open on Friday to watch some INCREDIBLE golf. We almost saw 2 of the rarest golf shots...a hole-in-one and a double eagle (I mean like inches from them happening). I wasn't sure I would enjoy watching golf live because my golf knowledge is limited but it was truly an amazing experience. What was even more phenomenal than Tiger's mad skills was watching the THOUSANDS of people follow him for 18 holes. His entourage was ginormous.
Not only is my dad a GENEROUS man, he is one of the most selfless human beings I have ever met. He reminds me of Daniel. God gave Daniel wisdom, insight, and power and yet Daniel remained grounded in his convictions and rightly related to God. My dad has worked extremely hard to become a successful businessman and yet you would never know it by his lifestyle. He puts himself aside for the good of others every day. One example I have of this was before my wedding. My dad took ballroom dance classes (he would rather clean public park toilets than dance) with me for a couple months so we could do a stellar waltz during our father-daughter dance.
I could blog forever about how cool my dad is but work calls. HAPPY FATHER'S DAY. I LOVE YOU.
