As you all know from the 3 posts I have done on this Blog I follow a daily blog called "the Petermans Eye. Done by J Peterman himself the topics range fron language to politics to everything else. Well today's topic is Father's day. you can read it here @ http://www.petermanseye.com/ Mr. Peterman decided to use an old "Twangy" Country song by Conway Twitter as today's topic, called "That's my Job" a song that I had heard while grow'n up numerous times

For the record I was brought up on "Twangy Country" Conway Twitty was a staple in our household.
I haven't thought about this particular song in years & forgot about it until I read today's posting by Mr. Peterman.
This particular song has actually followed my relationship with my own father so far. The teenage yrs. seemingly to have lasted FOREVER.... and to be almost autobiographical...
Yet it when it comes down to it I can't and really don't want to imagine having a different dad or my life without him. I don't know what I would do without my Dad. I have been and am FAR from the PERFECT daughter, Yet as I have matured I find myself saying more & more that "I am My Father's Daughter" and seemingly proud of of that fact.
My dad is amazing to my sister (dad always liked HER BEST LOL), He is an amazing Grandpa to my Niece & Nephew, he is an amazing Husband to my mom, and even though the Teen Yrs where VERY rough between he & I he is amazing to me also. He knows that despite the fact that these past few yrs for me have been pretty rough for me that I will land on my feet, and that he will be there to see it. It says a lot about one of the people who brought you up can tell that when life throws you a curve, they have the faith and confidence that you will be able to handle it with a little help & Will nor be jump'n in until asked.
I LOVE my dad and even though I have taken some wrong turns on the path he has never left my side and has allowed me to follow it while offering his bits of guidance and support throughout..
In the last 3 years I have lost an uncle who was my dad's best friend and who our family adored, my paternal & maternal grandmothers, my marriage,and my full time job. Yet thru it all I have never had anything but support,understanding and faith from my dad & my mom. As a teenager I would have never thought it possible to have reached such a place of respect and unconditional love from my dad and on the other hand I can't imagine how hard life would be if I didn't have that in my life.
