The story is told of a man who was making his way across a snow-covered field to a bar. As he neared the bar, he happened to look back and notice that his little boy had followed him across the field by placing his little feet in his dad’s footprints. The little boy looked up and said rather innocently, “See Daddy. I’m following in your footsteps.” With that the man picked up his son and went home to his family.
