The Best Parental Unit Ever!

So, this past week has been such an incredible blessing, and I sit here in awe of the coolest parental unit on the planet. I know, you're thinking you have the best parents ever, and that's okay that you think that. Go right ahead. But, I happen to believe that my parents are the best ever.

The whole time I was growing up, I was an incredibly blessed little girl. Both my parents played the role of PARENTS and raised my brother and I in an incredibly healthy home. Of course, the whole time I was growing up I thought everyone had what I had. Afterall, all I knew was a happy, loving home. I don't look back and remember any fights. But I do remember gobs of laughter, joy, and love. That was all I knew, and so that was "normal" to me.

So, this past week I went home for the entire Spring Break. And, I found that things are the same at home. We laughed, played with the pups, ate meals together, talked, played on Dad's new computer, and just plain loved each other. I have said for a long time that I wish my students had what I had, and this week showed me (once again) how blessed I really am.

So, while there may not be an Oscar Award show for parents, I would nominate and give my parents the "Best Parental Unit Ever" Award.

Besides, they have the two coolest dogs on the planet. What more can you ask for?

Later!
