Song: Just Fishing

By: Trace Adkins


Sophie ran to her dad and wiggled into his and Jamie's heart. "Now me, now me!" She squealed.

"Ha, ha, okay little one. I have the perfect one for you." Mr. Bennett settled Sophie while Jamie slid off his father's lap. The keyboard started up again and Sophie bounced on her father's lap in excitement.

"I like to dance, I like to ride my bike, I like kittens." Sophie chanted, obviously excited by her father's words.

Jack looked at the assortment of fishing trip photos and pictures. There were quite a few, some had the entire Bennett clan but Jack was drawn to one colored shot of Mr. Bennett and Sophie. It showed Mr. Bennett pointing out a bird in the distance as both there poles sat in the river's water.

Jack recalled, from his reclaimed memories, many a fishing trip with his sister. Being able to bring home a big fish for dinner was always a pleasure. But what they really loved was the time together; sometimes a water fight was thrown in too. Jack completely agreed with Mr. Bennett, time went by really fast and you never knew what the next day we hold in store for you. He cherished every memory with his family and only regretted that he had lost those memories for so long.

There wasn't a dry eye in the room, though some try to hide it, everyone thinking of precious memories. It didn't take long up for everyone to join into group hugs, leaving Jack feeling left out. That is, until Jamie and several cousins pulled him into a group hug. After his shock wore off he returned the hugs wholeheartedly.

"This ain't about fishing." Mr. Bennett whispered to his daughter who wrapped her arms around his neck.
