Belated Father's Day Post

I was once asked who my hero was, and I hadn't ever thought about it much, but I automatically knew the answer: my Daddy.
I have been very fortunate to have my Dad around my whole life, I know many people out there don't get to have that experience, so I am truly grateful for how I have been blessed.
Neither my Daddy nor I are big talkers, when we go anywhere together we don't say much. But in all those quiet rides or visits, interrupted only by small talk of the weather or cattle, there is always the mutual feeling of love between a father and son. My Dad is always know as the joker of the family, when he walks in a room the the mood automatically lightens. He also has the "patriarchal" wiseness about him when I go to him for advice, and as I'm slowly coming to find out, Dad's usually right, even when I don't agree with him.
I remember growing up in the little single-wide trailer house down the road from Meme and Pop's house and right next door to Mammaw Crenshaw's house, it wasn't much but it was home. My Dad busted his butt in the oilfield, but he was ALWAYS there for me when we needed him, he always provided for us, even when money was short. And as times got better and we got a better house and nicer things, only the superficial things changed, Dad was still there just like before. My Dad is the perfect example of what a successful man is. First: He started out at the bottom and worked his way up into an extremely successful career, while never neglecting his family. Second: he and my mother have instilled Christian values in, without which I honestly don't know where I would be today, Third: He and my mother raised four amazing adults (if I say so myself), that are putting those values to work in their own families. Finally: my father is an extremely humble man. He admits when he has screwed up, and I love him that much more for it. He may think he has let us down a few times, but I assure you my Dad has NEVER let me down.
I'm not trying to boast with this, I'm just trying to express my gratitude for my blessings. It may not be the best written piece of work, but its from the heart. My father is great man, I can only pray that I will be half the Dad he is to me.
What's the thing I am most proud of? Being known as Scott Ferrier's boy.
