Daddy loves me! And that's that.

Picture day is tomorrow. Cathy wants to have her hair all curled. Someday I should just let that girl get a perm. She always wants her hair culed. Only her hair doesn't curl very easily. you curl it and right away it goes out. who knows if we'll even get up early enough to try. Jorge, my son, got a haircut for pictures. pretty short, but you can't tell that he cut it himself earlier. Jeremiah, wants to read, read, read. And he is doing great toilet wise. He loves it. So do I.

My dad and I had a good talk today. He sleeps alot, and isn't always fully awake for a conversation. We had a Dynamic Women's meeting on the 29th of Sept. One question we had to discuss was a person who has been influencial in our christian walk. I talked about my dad. How he was always so loving and kind, yet he could also be firm if he needed to. He wasn't overly firm, or yell, or threaten. We knew when it was no, and had respect for him. I said that to me he was a great example of God's love. Loving, but will reprimand if needed. I always look to him as an example. One of the ladies asked if I've ever told my dad. I hadn't. She said that I really should let him know that he influenced me. So tonight I did. He was sitting on his chair. I was laying on his bed. It was great. He got teary eyed and said, "good". He can be a man of few words. It was an implied "good, that i influenced you. or good that you watched me" He did say that he loves me. I always knew that. My brother being the first born knew things before me and was showing off reciting abc's and numbers, check out his super smart daughter . Someone asked me what did I know, well i couldn't say the same thing so I said, "i know my daddy loves, me and that's that!" I'm glad that I had the opportunity to share with him, and that someone told me I should. Thanks Donna.

Makes me think "what are my kids seeing when they look at me." I pray that I will be as influencial in a good way to them as my dad is to me.
