I have two memories. The first one I was very young but I went everywhere with Dad. I knew which lumber store gave out balloons or toy rings, which one had the candy machine, or pop machine. We would always share an orange crush. The other was when I was about 12. I was washing the dishes and not happy about it cuz the dish washer was broke. Dad came in to help and to try and cheer me up like he always does. I didn't want to be cheered up. I wanted to sulk. So when he told me a joke I stuck my tounge and gave him a razzberry. He tried to give one back but not very good. So I instructed him on how to do it. Saying that he needed to stick his tounge out farther. He tried again. This time his teeth flew out of his mouth and across the kitchen floor. He succeeded. I had a smile on my face. In fact I laughed so hard and he said "see I knew I could make you smile". He will always make me smile! I love you dad!
