"Real" Housewifes..

I have gotten interested in the show the "Real Housewifes Series". Call me crazy, but this is not my idea of a "real" housewife.  I must say I get a kick out of watching the show. I think to be a house wife you need to 1. be married , 2. have a personality, 3.  be kind

I would like to put together my own show, it would be full of real women,  LaRae Moss, Tauna Egan, Janice Nestman, Kay Baker, and Karren Garrett. Believe me this would get much higher ratings that what they have on TV now.  

Dad

My dad retired a week ago. It was one of the neatest experiences of my life. I knew my dad was a great man, but to be able to see others recognize him made it so much more special. I love my dad, he is my hero and I strive to be more like him each and every day. 

He is the best grandpa I know and a wonderful father.  My favorite book is "To Kill A Mockingbird" in that book towards the end, as Atticus has lost his trial, the blacks are sitting in the balcony and out of respect for him they all stand, Scout is confused by this, Calpurnia says, "Stand up, your fathers passin." I can say I would stand for my father any day. 

My dad is a great inspiration to his family, I recently found a quote that said; " Don't raise your son to be a hero raise him to be a son and then he will be a hero, even if it is in your own eyes." I know that your parents think of you as a hero. I know that your kids do. I love you dad.
