Day 16: What is the first thing that pops into my head when I think of my father?

Laughter.

Growing up, my dad has always been able to make me laugh.  He could make me laugh by telling a joke or just doing something silly (usually it was the latter).  Granted, those who know me know that it is extremely easy to make me laugh but I contribute that to my upbringing.  If I didn't grow up in a household where laughter abounded, I doubt it would be that easy to make me laugh.  Everytime I see my dad, whether it be twice a week or twice a month, you can bet at some point you'll hear me laughing.  I am so thankful and grateful for that because it was a trait that I looked for in a husband.  I wanted to marry someone who could make me laugh as much as my dad did.  So thank you Dad, for the laughter.  It has been fun (ny?) being your daughter!
