My Dad

The Texas team had ice cream for the girls and popcorn and a movie for the boys.

We just celebrated Father’s Day and I was thinking of my Dad who passed away decades ago. I never could outgrow his love for me.

I will always remember scoring a touch down to win a playoff game and the next week fumbling the ball giving the win to my opponents. No one talked to me and I was the last to leave and I heard a voice in the dark.

He said, “Who scored that TD last week”? I answered “Me”. He then said,  “Who fumbled the ball tonight?” With tears I answered, “Me”. My father then said, “And I love them both”. What a Dad he was!
