Life’s Little Moments

I've said this numerous times, but it is so special when I can get all of my kids together. My oldest had called and asked if we could go to dinner on Father's Day. I told him that I would like that and suggested we go somewhere cheap. My thoughts were to go to a … Continue reading Life’s Little Moments →

Father’s Day

Happy Father's Day to my "Dad" friends! I hope you are being celebrated today. Andrew and Ella couldn't wait for today, so they gave me my gifts yesterday. When they got up today and Sam reminded them that it was Father's Day, Ella said, "That was yesterday." Ever since, she has referred to yesterday as … Continue reading Father’s Day →

(After) Father’s Day Lunch

One of the hardest things to do it seems is to get all my kids together. There are a lot of factors involved in this - jobs, appointments, certain people, and schedules in general. However, over the weekend, all of my kids got together with me to celebrate Father's Day. We met at one of … Continue reading (After) Father’s Day Lunch →

Father’s Day 2023

Father's Day Morning I found out at 3:40am that Mowgli, the new kitten, has quite a loud "meow!" I tried to go back to sleep, but for some reason, I was not able to. So I put on a pot of coffee and grabbed my book. Sam got home from work and had the kids … Continue reading Father’s Day 2023 →

Happy Father’s Day

Well, the kitten woke me up about 3:30 this morning. He's an early bird apparently. So I decided to take advantage of the kids still sleeping and I made a pot of coffee. I figured I'd read a bit. I then remembered that today is Father's Day. So I wanted to take a moment to … Continue reading Happy Father’s Day →

Sam had texted me that Ella was anxious for me to come home to get my present. Ella was excited because she had seen … Continue reading My Father’s Day Weekend →

2021 – What a Year!

At midnight tonight, we'll start a brand new year - 2022. Some have compared a new year to a book. The book with 365 blank pages - one for each day - and said that the book is ours to write. There is truth to that. As I looked back over my "book" entitled "2021," … Continue reading 2021 – What a Year! →

A Very Happy Father’s Day

As Father's Day approached this year, I wasn't really sure what to expect. My oldest son works so much, and when he isn't working, he's usually hanging out with his friends. My youngest son hasn't been here in a couple months, and when I have gone to pick him up, I end up coming home … Continue reading A Very Happy Father’s Day →

So Much Truth in One Cartoon

As Father's Day approaches, I think about my two sons (now 19 and almost 14), and my daughter (1) and son on the way. I realize just how fast time flies... I have no idea who did this cartoon, but it moved me to tears ....

Well, well, well. Look who’s back…

This is my first blog since May 18th. I guess this is the longest I have gone between blogs and many have sent private messages wondering if I am doing okay. My good buddy, Max, sent an email asking about me and it took me a while to write him back. Knowing I work in … Continue reading Well, well, well. Look who’s back… →
