I remember when my dad stopped smoking. I was in elementary school, and I wanted him to live a long life! So, I looked at him with puppy eyes during breakfast and said, “Dadda, can you quit smoking? I want you to live a long life! Smoking hurts you...” He simply smiled at me and we went on with our day. I learned years later that that was the day he decided to quit cold turkey. My mom could never get him to quit, but I guess it was his little daughter that broke the last straw!
