A bell ringer?!?!
So...my dad has decided to do something totally out of character this Christmas. He has volunteered to be a Bell Ringer for the Salvation Army. The fact that he decided to volunteer to do something to help other people isn't the part that is out of character. But he decided to stand in front of a grocery store, wear an apron, and ring a little bell...THAT'S the part that is out of character! I have to admit, when my mom told me....I was shocked and amazed. He called me today while he was ringing his little bell...and now I have to admit that in addition to still being shocked and amazed...I'm also proud. Maybe the pretty lady that offered to sing with him is making it a little easier...who knows. Whatever it is that compelled him to want to do this makes me very proud. Ringing the bell in Florida...in 80 degree weather while we're waiting for an ice storm here in Middle Tennessee...sounds like an excellent way to spend the day. I love you, Dad!
