Most of you know I've been brewing beers for my daughter's wedding rehearsal dinner, and as gifts for the two groomsmen. Yesterday I posted the following in my Facebook:
Okay, I got the Groomsman's Pride bottled and labeled. I think it turned out very well - maybe the best of the three wedding beers, although time will tell (and I think they're all going to be good anyway). Tomorrow I brew a fiver of South Ferry Steam Beer, and begin refilling my private pipeline. I mean, I am getting some of the wedding beers for my own private consumption, but it's not the same thing.
And my daughter responded with this:
Thank you so much, Dad. It really, really means so much to have this personal touch as a part of our wedding. You care a lot about your craft, and put a lot of hard work into it--just like you care a lot about me and put a LOT of hard work into me. You have a talent, and it's going to be an honor to share this with the world. I know the fellas will just love their custom-made beers.
Love you, Daddy!
And now I gotta see about dusting this place. I got dust in my eyes. Yeah, it's really dusty in here, and it's getting in my eyes....
I'm a proud and humbled dad

Re: I'm a proud and humbled dad
Very cool. You and the Mrs. have obviously done a good job - congrats! But clearly, you've gotta work on dusting the house more often.

I'm not particularly crazy (IMO), and I don't rock-climb. It's just the name of a video game I used to like to play, back in the 80's.

That Lady is one class act. That's what your children should do when Mom or Dad's do for them and the ones they Love. Dave, I would be proud of her too.
Re: I'm a proud and humbled dad
I've got one child, a daughter and every now and then they surprise you and turn you into a marshmallow reading the letter your daughter wrote to you did that to me
I hope the wedding goes as well as the beer and it's a fairytale ending

I know <whine> I'm posting to an old thread but I just felt I had to say...
Thanks for having a daughter to practice on before coming over here to take such good care of us The Hat. <I bow, I bend a knee>
