A Perfect Post – January 2007 (Sticky Post for Today)
I am fortunate enough to have encountered so many blogs whose writers have inspired me, moved me, made me laugh, made me cry (and that’s hard to do, mind you) and warmed my heart. That’s a whole other aspect of blogging that for some reason I didn’t expect when I started my own space here in August.
Daddy Forever started visiting me a few months ago, and his comments never fail to make me laugh. His poor long-suffering wife could probably tell you some awesome stories about this man, but in all honesty, he does a pretty good job of that himself. I love his perspective on things and his near-devilish sense of humor. When I read his blog entry commemorating Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, I was especially moved. Here is this person that usually has me in stitches talking about his family’s antics, expressing his idealistic dreams and how they’ve changed since the addition of children to his life. I have to say, I even got a little misty as I read about his hopes. I think it’ll move you too.
This is why I’ve awarded Daddy Forever my Perfect Post Award for January 2007. I hope you’ll go discover his blog if you’ve never read it before, starting with this entry. If you have, go visit him anyway, and give this man a pat on the back. He’s an awesome writer and an even more awesome Dad.

Thanks for award. You said really nice things about me. Thanks. Do I pay you now or later?
Now, in small, unmarked bills. A small cat in a trench coat will contact you with the drop off details.
