Proud Papa
I usually don't post on family matters, so I don't have identities for my relations, like "Littlest Scholar" or "Senator" or "Children I Used to Have" etc. But being a fan of comedian Ron White, the legendary 'Tater Salad, I'll borrow his theme. I like potato salad a lot so yes, I am Tater Salad in my house, married to Tater Chip, with two children, the youngest being Tater Tot. (Have to work on the daughter's title, maybe Tater Dumpling?)
Tomorrow is Tater Tot's last day of High School and tonight was his last Annual Athletic Awards Banquet. This year's guest speaker was Don Roney, head football coach at St. Thomas, and husband to Tater Tot's first grade teacher.
It caught 'Tater Chip and me by surprise when Tater Tot was given the prestigious (male) Sportsmanship Award after listening to many quotes on the various submissions. We whispered to each other in agreement who we thought it would be, and it easily could have gone to him or a couple of others we know.
We're very proud.
