Boyfriend, daughter, me and my parents went out for a late lunch/early supper.
It was a place on the river with an outside deck and ceiling fans...............we ate outside on the deck over looking the river........................and listened to some guy sing, play guitar, and the harmonica. I love the harmonica...........................he was good. Dad as usual had a list of jokes to tell. Boyfriend was cracking up laughing at dads jokes........so was I really......cause he is funny and some of the time I think he missed his calling as a stand up comedian. Mom laughs at him and rolls her eyes all at the same time...........mom looks beautiful and healthy. I hope she does okay for awhile...........................Dad doesn't like that daughter is going to the homecoming with an African American. The same guy she went with to the prom. I'm proud of daughter for having a mind of he r own and doing what SHE WANTS. You can't live your life trying to do the things that please everyone else. Well I guess you can.........but at some point you have to do those things that make you happy or you're just living a lie............who wants to live a great big old lie?
I don't want my children feeling like they have to live one.

My first wife was half native american, my mother didn't like that, my dad told her it wasn't any of her business.
You are soooooooo right and tell your daughter to follow her heart and be happy in this life. She can't be concerned with living her life to make others happy while making herself sad. Have a great week.
