So the graduation tonight...Was great...I'm sure all the parents on here think their kids are cute, and I'm sure they are but my D has to be the cutest little girl in the world :). She started doing this thing with pictures, posing like she in some beauty pageant started TODAY. Just cracked me up asked W about it and she was just as surprised. All the kids looked so cute in the cap and gowns.

Meet a couple, that I have known since I was 10, today and apparently our D's have been going to the same preschool for 3 years and we just never ran into each other. They knew who my girl is since I have a very unique last name.

W and I as usual got along great MIL was there got along great with her. Only part that hurt and only for about ten minutes. W got a babysitter/nanny for the summer and I hadn't met her, she is the D of the owner of the daycare. W asked if I wanted to meet her she'd introduce me, sure I thought...W said "this is D and S father...OUCH...Then I thought how else would she introduce me the girl obviously knows I don't live there so that was the "bad" part...

Just really fun seeing D up there singing and getting her diploma, dang she's cute...

This is my song for when she starts dating (at 25+)...

The Declaration of Independence
Think I could tell you that first sentence
But then I’m lost

I can't begin to count the theories
I've had pounded in my head
That I forgot

I don't remember all that Spanish
Or the Gettysburg address
But there is one speech from high school
I'll never forget

(Chorus)
Come on in boy sit on down
And tell me about yourself
So you like my daughter do you now?
Yeah we think she's something else
She's her daddy's girl
Her momma's world
She deserves respect
That’s what she'll get
Ain’t it son?
Hey y'all run along and have some fun
I'll see you when you get back
Bet I’ll be up all night
Still cleanin' this gun

Well now that I’m a father
I’m scared to death one day my daughter
Is gonna find
That teenage boy I used to be
That seems to have just one thing on his mind

She’s growin' up so fast
It won't be long before
I’ll have to put the fear of god into
Some kid at the door

(Chorus)
Come on in boy sit on down
And tell me about yourself
So you like my daughter do you now?
Yeah we think she's something else
She's her daddy's girl
Her momma's world
She deserves respect
That’s what she'll get
Now ain't it son?
Y’all go out and have some fun
I'll see you when you get back
Probably be up all night
Still cleanin' this gun

Now it's all for show
Ain’t nobody gonna get hurt
It’s just a daddy thing
And hey, believe me, man it works

(Chorus)
Come on in boy sit on down
And tell me about yourself
So you like my daughter do you now?
Yeah we think she's something else
She's her daddy's girl
Her momma's world
She deserves respect
That’s what she'll get
Now ain't it son?
Y’all run along and have a little fun
I'll see you when you get back
Probably be up all night
Still cleanin' this gun

Son, now y'all buckle up and have her back by te- let's say about nine...thirty.
Drive safe.
