Happy Father's Day!

With that said to all of the people who celebrate this date as a way in honoring our male counter-parts in the parenthood wars I for one salute you all!
It’s a tough job but when we take the time to have the fun; in why whatever does she mean… point blank and blatantly exacting… why of course, making those little darlings, i.e. having unprotected sex, my friends! Then we must take on the responsibilities of the job! Now that you all remember how you became fathers we can move on… With in retrospect of how it goes from that instant of thoughtless behavior! LOL!

Thankless at times, but the early years are when the rewards appear to be the greatest, when we all have those magic lips to kiss those booboos and solve all the daily woes of baby hood and toddler hood… But as time marches on so does the job description grow all the more challenging with involvement with school, homework and all those extra curricular activities and scheduling time to get the children where they have to go and to still get you to where you have to go too, like work! And on and on into their teens and twenties and forever if fortunate enough to be included in that part of the continuation of their lives; which really is the reward for a job really well done.

And of course then being lucky enough to enjoy their children and lovingly spoiling them as much as you can in short spurts and sending those lil beans home to those marvels that you created with love and care. And then you handing back theirs to them with your wisdom exposed into their nimble capable modeling brains that you have the ability to teach whatever for the short time that they are there all alone with just you…
Yes, throw a bit of difficulty into your grown-up children’s lives let them realize that it wasn’t all that easy for them to become the fine upstanding adults that they are now. Tell their wee ones how they were and why they have this or that difficulty still as an adult …

Oh, where was I, nah, I was kidding, be kind and treat the babes of your babes with as much love and patience that had been used on them as they tried our patience’s daily for years and years and years! And we were so happy when they got into that college across the state or the military basic training way up north! Just far enough away for breathing room and for the suffocation to stop! Oh yes! I can tell you stories of some days… but they were so adorable and way too good and always behaved so well… NOT! Ours were sooo normal as yours are too or were as small ones…
But they were mine and his, the dad, the Hubby and we shared the responsibility and the good and bad times and the best of times the ones where they would whole heartedly say to us, “I love you!” And yes it went way too fast and so to all those fathers and mothers out there with young ones that you can still mold into PEOPLE that will make you and THEMSELVES proud, which ours do daily… the easiest part is what we all know in our hearts is to give them your time, your ear and the most important part is your unconditional love forever, and then you may get a phone call or a card or email on birthdays and holidays or a surprise visit like our eldest did for me for Mother’s Day!…But those babes are only on loan and I truly think this expression applies, ‘if you love them set them free and then they will come back to thee…”
Remember if you taught them right, by the time they are thirty or beyond, like ours are you must trust their judgment to do what’s right! LOL! Of course they do learn it all much earlier, but this is all tongue in cheek I hope you know…
On those parting words I would like say to all that I hope you had the best day ever with more to come to us all on the horizon…stow this one right where all those best days memories are kept, since with all these acts of G-d no one ever knows, does one if photos will endure, but thanks for those mind memories that no one but dementia can steal…

Oh heck, write it all down on this techno marvel like I have with pics too and keep the memory back up stick in safe place! Take those photos and catalogue them in waterproof rappers and films on discs and cluster them In safe places and hope for the best! Or do what I do nightly tell the world! And I am sure someone out there might remember what I said … if only…

On that somewhat odd end to another HOT ONE (weather day i.e., not me, I thought you might need me to clarify with my stream of consciousness way of writing); let me be the first to wish you all a very happy good night and to ask you kindly to count your blessings and to share those overages and we will too!

And be well and happy and may peace and joy come to you and yours and next time please be here or be square for my own selfish sake, OK?
