sister-in-law and nieces and my brother cheering him on as a family. because if my dad were alive, that s exactly what he would be doing. i think i would want people to understand for my life that sometimes thing happen that we don t want, divorce. no one wants that. it s easy to feel like life has shortchanged us somehow, but i don t look at life that way at all. you never know what s around the corner. and for me, it was a great dad. and of course, you can still go to the today show website inspired by, the hash tag and let me know who inspired you or go to our news nation page or twitter. it was an honor to share my dad s story. is that does it for this week. s had an honor to be in the same spice with these great people. a lot of them identify with the story. we talked about parents and boo hooed and celebrated. can we have some champagne, it s friday? elias, home sick.
