My Father and I

My father and I play online Scrabble together. First we played on Scrabulous.com until it go shut down by the Scrabble bosses. Now we play on Lexulous.com.

He and I have been super close my whole life. My mother and I have been, too, I'm her Baby Duck. But my Daddy and I have a special connection. I've always been his "Meggie Poo", hence the name of my blog. My sisters are also close with my Dad. I think he's just a good Daddy to us and always has been. He used to make us milkshakes every night before we went to bed... he is that kind of Dad :)

I love playing Scrabble with him online because even though we're a few hours away we can enjoy each others company just the same.

I was telling a co-worker the other day that some of my favorite moments are when I'm visiting home and he comes inside (my father is an outside being, he thrives on the fresh air) and tells me to "Come outside quick! You gotta see this...". I love the adventures he asks me and my sisters to go on with him. I grew up on a modest farm with chickens, ducks, cats and dogs... sometimes a goat or a cow, too. Because of that animal lineup, you know our adventures were cool...

I just played a word in Lexulous.com online Scrabble and had a moment where I wanted to share with anyone and everyone who reads this blog how great my Father is and how much I love him.

Thanks, Dad! It's your turn in Scrabble!
