Just like Dad

I find that the older I get, the more I'm like my dad. Sure, we have some differences. If you ask him what he's reading, it'll be a newspaper where if you ask me, it'll be a novel. If you ask him to put on some music, it'll be Neil Diamond or Elvis Presley or some Southern gospel. Ask me to put on some music and I'll play The OC Supertones, Slick Shoes, Five Iron Frenzy, Jars of Clay or something along those lines. But the older I get, the more I'm like him. The older I get, the more I like fishing. The older I get, the more I like ham sandwiches. With mustard. The older I get, the more my humor sounds like his. Now my dad has his flaws, like anybody else. But I know he loves Jesus. So the more I get to be like my dad, hopefully I get to be even more like Jesus.
