    My 1st Hero

    My Hero
    Dad you were my 1st super Hero
    Dad then you were my 1st court Jester maybe the dumbest man on earth
    Dad then I grew up and I learned who you really were.
    Dads then I learn you were human and not perfect.
    Dad you were still a real man and still my hero
    Dad you gave me your 1st and Last name one of your greatest gifts
    Dad you taught me Love, Patent’s,Forgiveness 70x7, Loyalty and Honor
    Many in our family have forgotten these lessons
    Dad you were the glue that held it all together.
    I ask myself almost every day what DAD Do.
    I know you would say stay the course and forgive them. So I will
    One day we shall meet again, till then every day I will see you in the mirror
    I love you

    I wish I could fully echo your thoughts of your dad but I can with all confidence say my Heavenly Father is all that my dad was unable to be. Thanks for sharing your heart brother.

    DCP,
    you said it so well,there is really nothing much else to say.
    Your words mirror my relationship with my Dad.
    I am going to visit him (and Mom) tomorrow and will be thinking of your words during the visit.

    My Dad did sooooo much for me and my brother ...and it took a couple decades for me to really appreciate and understand that.
    God Bless,
    Jon

    Good post DCP, I know you miss him, I sure miss mine.

    When guns are outlawed only criminals and the government will have them and at that time I will see very little difference in either!
