My Dad taught me...
to always carry a bear stick when walking in the woods
to have my own opinions
to appreciate history
to have an imagination
to stand up for myself
to have a good work ethic...
how to draw
how to play softball
how to build a snow fort
how to flip people off - the Texas way...
that it is ok for men to cry
that you can be a strong person with a soft heart
that life is like a bowl of cherries {huh?}
that fly fishing is the only kind of fishing
that you do not have to be a product of your circumstances
that they don't make music like they used to {although he likes the Black Keys}...
Happy Father's Day, Paul Richard Parrish.
We love you.
You are one cool dude.
The coolest.
{an extra special thank you to my Mom, for taking photos of these photos and sending them to me}
