My Little Girl

The last 2 weeks have been a roller coaster of emotions. A week ago last Friday our youngest daughter's boyfriend came outside while I was grilling steaks and I knew he wanted something. I could tell that he was real nervous and had something on his mind. After a few minutes of awkward conversation he blurted out the question---you know that question that you dread hearing. I have heard this question 2 other times but this time it was different. As the boy was talking all I could think about was little Merzy sitting at the dining room table saying "sugar me daddy" which was our special song when she was only 2 or 3. My how time flies by. Yesterday, he made it official and proposed! Although he is a great guy and I couldn't have hand-picked a better mate for Kimmy it is still hard knowing that our youngest has grown into a beautiful young lady and is about to leave the nest. So Adam, take care of my little girl, welcome to the family, we love you! As you start your new life together keep God first. Always remember Merzy -- Daddy loves you!!!
