She asked me rhetorically, "Why is it that whenever I answer the phone, if it's an adult, they always say - "How's school going?"
"Do they always say that?" I asked her.
"Yes, unless it's summer, then they ask, 'How's vacation going?"
We adults are so conversationally limited.
And kids know it.

Rest in peace, Dan. Nashville is sad to see you go.

I hope someone points out to Dan's youngest daughter McKensie that her father was a great man.
Not because he was on TV. Not because he had an exclusive interview, or was such a talented journalist.
Because as the pages in this blog show, he was a wonderful father. I hope someone will save these posts for her to read if not soon, someday.
I know she has to already know how wonderful he is, but to lose a father at her age, a positive reminder of his love for her can be a powerful healing tool over the years.
I hope I can be this kind of father to my son.
