Some chuckles and a totally warm fuzzy feeling in my heart. Love this! 💚

Thanks for the wonderful reply. Growing up in a household with such a loving lady, guiding me every step of the way to becoming a good man, was her ultimate goal. To this day I can hear her saying, "Robert, the most precious of all of the things your father and I have given you is a name you can be proud of. "
That was all I needed to hear. That one line has helped me make so many of the right choices that one needs to make while navigating past the many temptations one faces while growing up.
I hope your holidays are filled with family, friends, and happiness @planttoplanks.
I’m going to use it now, too. I haven’t been awake too long, I’m glad I made it to this reply page this morning cuz that was a nice read. My mother used to say “you’re driving me up a wall” and “blank in one hand....” you know that one. But I know what she meant, “a name you can be proud of.” Well said, Rob’s mom—it’s obvious he owned what you told him.
I'm not sure where I would be in my life without her guidance, but one thing is certain, I wouldn't be where I'm at today.
This one of those times when your one-liner has just as much of an impact as the novels, @thebigsweed.
