There is a story that resurfaces from time to time in my family. The big punchline is that when I was in grade school, sometime around when report cards were issued, I asked my parents what would happen if I got a B. That about sums me up as a student.

I strive to do well, and as I have grown a bit older, I am quite aware that I am motivated by learning.

Recently, I have had the opportunity to do some learning that I feel was particularly eye-opening and valuable as a military spouse.

My opportunity was to use Study.com for some practice tests, and then work through the site using their available study materials related to the practice tests I had chosen.

When I was growing up, my dad and I always played the “How much do I love you?” game. It starts off with saying, I love you, and then comes the question of: But how much do you love me? We’d go back and forth saying, “I love you this much!” as we motioned with our arms until we couldn’t stretch them out any further. The game always ended the same way.

“I love you more,” I’d say.

And Dad always replied, “I love you more than more!”

Love between family members is always worth celebrating, and many times we chose to honor those we love in some way. This year, consider honoring your dad or a dad you know with a chance to become 2019’s “All-Star” Dad.
