My Fathers Day present

Recommended Posts

 My "adopted" son called me and we talked for an hour and a half. He attended university with my daughter and he stayed at our house over Christmas break every year because the university emptied the dorms during break and neither he or his family could not afford the trip back to Miami. This fantastic man was of Haitian descent and still spoke some Creole when he got excited, so there was a little culture shock going on. Now he works in the Governor's office in Nevada on jobs and education issues and has even helped author legislation. 

 

  He has the work ethic that very few possess. I am very proud of him. How many people of his humble beginnings win a post graduate scholarship to Harvard, would you think?

 

 

Still waiting on a call from my daughter...................Got a text saying she would call later on................ I will be sure to tell her that my "son' beat her to the punch.
