HAPPY FATHER'S DAY


First I want to say HAPPY FATHER'S DAY to all the dads out there. I hope
your day is very special.
Today is a bit tough for me - the other day I was thinking of Father's Day coming up
and I picked up the phone to call my dad to ask about his plans - then it hit me - and I spent the next several hours just sobbing....God I miss him....
Here are a few words of wisdom for Father's Day that I happen to come across:


My Father

When I Was...
4 years old
"My daddy can do anything."

5 years old
"My daddy knows a whole lot."

6 years old
"My dad is smarter than your dad."

8 years old
"My dad doesn't know exactly everything."

10 years old

"In the olden days when my dad grew up,
things were sure different."

12 years old

"Oh well!
Naturally, Dad doesn't know anything about that.
He is too old to remember his childhood."


14 years old

"Don't pay any attention to my dad.
He is so old-fashioned!"

21 years old

"Him? My Lord, he's hopelessly out-of-date!"


25 years old

"Dad knows a little bit about it,
but then he should because he's been around for so long."

3
0 years old
"Maybe we should ask dad what he thinks."

35 years old
"I'm not doing a single thing until I talk to Dad."

40 years old
"I wonder how Dad would have handled it.
He was so wise and had a world of experience."


50 years old

"I'd give anything if Dad were here now
so I could talk this over with him.
Too bad I didn't appreciate how smart he was.

I could have learned a lot from him."
