Pops!

So for our topic of choice, I have decided to theme my blog around my dad. I can write anything really, realate it to him, and it will all connect back to my main theme of my daddy! Pops! This is a little about why I want to do this:

First, I am in the mood to write about and it is easy at this time to write about my dad because his inspiration is the subject my narrative. Second, I really don't thank him enough for what he has tought me, inspired me, and done for me. Not even mentioning he has been somewhat of a role model for me, although I am a little more personable. Third, I can't really share my gratitude for him with him or anyone too much really because it feels awkward. He is always so....I don't know how to put it...manly. Not wanting to share emotions. He doesn't like help from people much and is into being self-sufficient and independent, so the idea of him aiding me so much makes me feel like I am admitting to his helping me and me accepting it. I guess it's a weird thing. Mabe I'll finally get enough courage and confidence to do it around the time I leave for college because he really does mean a lot to me. Anyways, this can be my way of doing it quietly, and showing the world...or the internet i guess....how much he has and is still having an effect on my life.
