I saw this video on Facebook and I had to share it here. In it, a father interviewed his daughter from the first day of Kindergarten through the first day of High School. It's amazing how much his daughter changed from year to year and it's so neat that he has a record of it to look back on and cherish, because time goes by so quickly:

I actually cried watching it because you could see how much him and his daughter loved each other through the years. Teresa said "You're crying? You're a sentimental fool!"

One thing that always makes me cry is soldiers' homecoming videos. They get me every time!

You definitely are, Jerry. It's unique.

Awe, absolutely. They are so emotionally moving.

I know. It must be so hard for children to be without their mother or father or sibling for months or years at a time, but the reunions are always so joyous.

They really are.

The anxious days apart and not knowing if your loved one is safe either. It's being apart and scared of getting that call or doorbell ringing with bad news.

So hard.

These men and women who serve are something else. They do not get nearly enough credit for the sacrifices they make.

That's so true. No knowing when or if your loved one will be home must be agonizing.

Absolutely. One thing I like about Nancy Sinatra is that she ends every show that she does on Sirius XM (which I listen to every week) with the words "Please pray for our troops in harms way and their families that wait for them."

I didn't know that. That's great.

So how long do you think you'll have to work this weekend?

I'm not sure yet. I haven't looked at the document that my idiot boss wants me to edit. Hopefully it won't take too long.

I love her show because she plays a lot of her father's music from the 1940's, when he had this pure, lilting voice before all the booze and cigarettes took their toll. Listen to how beautiful his voice sounded in this clip:


The song starts at 1:07.

His voice is effortless. He’s barely even putting effort into it because his voice naturally sounds so beautiful. His voice sounds like a musical instrument.
