#365grateful Post 07



Today’s little slice of “happitude” is...


My Daddy... not just today, but every day.

After a long day at work I got a call from my Dad. He’s not a man of many words but I love him to bits because he gets me and he is always loving and supportive no matter what the situation.

Phone calls with my Dad are usually much the same every time. He calls me on his way home from work to find out how I’m doing. We chat about the day or pressing issues that need sorting out and then when he arrives home he signs off with:
“Okay bud. Well I’ll chat to you later in the week. Have a good night. Chat to you later. Love you millions. Bye.”

I realise that he’s just said he’ll chat to me later in the week and then followed up by saying he’ll chat to me later that same day... But that’s just my Dad and I’ve become accustomed to this kind of “Daddyism” over the years.

This evening’s phone call ended a little differently though... My Dad was really tired so his signing off line went a little something like this:

“Okay bud. Well I’ll chat to you later in the week. Have a good night. Love you later. Bye. Hmm... well I love you now too *chuckles*. Love you millions. Bye.”

That little chuckle made my whole day and for that I am truly #grateful!
