Thinking about my daddy today made me think of some of the words of wisdom he has given me.  Some I heeded and some I obviously did not.  Here are a few of my favorites . . .

"If you know how to act like a lady and when to act like a lady and you can be the toughest ol' broad you wanna' be the rest of the time!"

"You kinda have to grow up but you never have to be old."

"You better not be crabby or I'll stick a balogna sandwich in your ear!"  (and he did once)

"Never sit between you momma and me......you don't belong there."

"Always treat a woman like a thoroughbred and she'll never act like a nag."

"There's a BIG difference between a woman and a lady."

"I love you."

Happy Birthday, Daddy.......I love you!
