A person with such a broad spectrum of interests is usually rare to find, but from the very first moment I arrived on this earth, he was in my life. My father has very close-cropped, always well-trimmed dark hair, and below it are his bushy, determined-looking eyebrows. You immediately notice his eyes, shimmering like
