On any given night, you can find my dad sleeping in his arm chair or on the couch after a hard day's work. He will have been watching the news or something and just doozed off, then he'll snap out of his slumber and say, "what happened?" "I almost fell asleep..."
Well, that happened to me this evening. I was watching t.v. and didn't even feel sleepy and the next thing I knew it, I was very aware that my eye lids were shut and I'd been sleeping and was waking up... all the while, I was still sitting up on the couch. It was bizarre to me, but I chuckled to myself because it made me think of my daddy.
It was a small reminder that our parents pass down to us, more than just our physical features.
