Whether a Father, Son or Both

same to you

Thanks! ANY minute I'll be Dad x2. New daughter soon. Mom has been havin' contractions since Thursday. Monday @ 7am csection if nothin' sooner. RED ALERT for 4-5 days now. SOON

And Happy Fathers' Day to all the others too (I know it ain't always easy!!)

Thank You for the Father's Day wish!

My phone will be very busy today! :bigsmile:

---- And a HAPPY FATHER`S DAY to you guys as well !

This is the one day each year that I have flip-flop emotions. The happy emotions are because I am a father of one -- a 15 year old boy. He is very much like me at that age (long hair, loves rock music, spends way too much time chasing girls ). He is a good kid and I am proud to call him my son.
The sad emotions are because I lost my own father suddenly 15 years ago. He was only 52. I constantly think about the "what ifs" and think about things I should have done more or things that I should have said or shouldn`t have said. I just didn`t get enough time with him and I regret it every day. I didn`t tell him "I love you" very often and that is dumb on my part.
If you are fortunate enough to still have your dad, give him a call or a hug if he`s near. Tell him that you love him today.

I can relate. I just got off the phone with my dad, telling him I wouldn't be able to make it this year. I didn't tell him it was because I can't afford the trip (he lives in St Pete), but I'm sure he knows why. He's 81, and I don't know how many Father's Days I have left with him. At least I know all my brothers and sisters will be there today, and all my nieces and nephew, with their children. There isn't a man that walks this planet that I respect more.

I choked up on the phone, which I have never done talking to my dad before. I just thank the Lord everyday, that I have him in my life.

Thanks for the well wishes and the same to All the other Dads out there, My girls are supposed to be visiting me today, and then later we'll (more than likely me) will grill up some steaks..

I hope Everyone has a great day..!!
