My children are adults, now. The following thirteen things I admire in them/like about them are no doubt due more to my Wonder Woman’s influence than mine (I can think of a very few things I find a tad troubling in their characters that I associate with traits of mine–*heh*), but that only enhances my pride in how they have approached adulthood.
They are each, in their own manners,
1. Trustworthy
2. Loyal
3. Helpful
4. Friendly
5. Courteous
6. Kind
7. Obedient
8. Cheerful
9. Thrifty
10. Brave
11. Clean
12 Reverent
13. Playful
Yeh, so the last one isn’t in the “Boy Scout Law” but then neither of them were ever into scouting at all (heck, I’m surprised I could recall “the list” :-)), and they just “picked [these traits] up”–no doubt, as I said, from their mother.
They are more than this laundry list of traits, of course: smart, funny, insightful, and even at times wise–and more, still.
I am blessed to have the priviledge of having them call me “Dad”.

What a great list! What wonderful people your children must be–happy TT.

You called it, Jennie.

What a sweet thing to write. I am sure you have a lot of great stories to tell about your children….and each of these traits.72
Ignore the 72 at the end of that last comment…somehow part of the validation code got into my post. 🙂
Awww, what a proud daddy. And you should be. I bet that they are wonderful adults!
My TT is about my one and only daughter.
Happy T13!

Sounds like you raised great kids!
What great kids, And I think “playful” will always keep them young and full of your sense of humor..lol
Happy TT!
Congratultions to you (and your Wonder Woman) for a job well done! If only you could find all those traits in more children today!
Thanks for stopping by
You truly are blessed.
This is what having kids is all about. hopefully I can say the same when my munchkins grow up. 😉
Thanking my fellow TTer’s this week. Come get thanked!
