By Friday, I was moving around a bit more thanks to medications. My back was still hurting a bit, but at least I was able to get around. My youngest kids stayed over at Nana's on Friday night. I had called my older boys to see if they were free for dinner, but they had … Continue reading Father’s Day 2026

She’s Off To First!
As I stood with my son in the driveway this morning, I watched Sam backing out to take Ella for her last day of Kindergarten. At the end of the driveway, she shouted out the window to Andrew, "Make sure dad doesn't cry!" My family knows me so well. You would think that this kind … Continue reading She’s Off To First!
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.

(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
My Father’s Day Weekend
Father's Day began for me on Saturday morning. We celebrated Saturday because Sam had to work on Sunday. When I returned home from work, my kids were already up and waiting. 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
