to all you dad's on the board. I have to say as someone who usually isn't very serious often, this day is always special to me. Especially now that I've got two Tricycle Motors myself. Hope you guys have a great day and we all have the privilege of watching our young ones have successful and healthy lives.
You too, my friend. The greatest honor I have had is to be called 'daddy' by my two little girls. Greatest feeling in the world. I have told you guys about my dad, and what he meant to me. I have to give him a shout out: Pops, I miss you buddy. Thanks for everything.
I still miss my dad, but having an awesome little boy that calls me daddy and asks me to play baseball, basketball, football, golf, cars and trains nonstop is just incredibke. Happy father's day guys.
Happy Fathers Day to all of you! Got to go see the Rome Braves last night. Great minor league venue to see a baseball game.
Then comes things like, Can I have some money? Can I have some money? Can I have some money? Did I say, Can I have some money yet?
I hung up my little Father's Day present the kiddo made for me at his Parents Day Out last week. It's his little handprints and a poem about how he'll grow up one day and I've sat here the last 10 minutes tearing up. Dang it, I don't like this part of parenting.
My dad is not a very emotional guy. I've seen him cry twice. While playing golf Sunday he was telling me about the video they showed at his church that involved a guy throwing ball with his son. He said it got him to thinking and he looked at me and said that in his life he's accomplished many things, but nothing he ever did he enjoyed more than throwing ball with me. Took all I had not to cry then and now too thinking about it. Funny thing is, it's still the thing I've enjoyed the most in my life too. I won a lot of ballgames and was a part of some successful teams. But hearing my dad laughing after we'd hit each other multiple times throwing knuckleballs at dawn takes the cake. Just hope the Good Lord lets me experience that with my children, too.
Better than if it was a daughter and she was saying "Sure daddy, I make them wear condoms...when I'm sober enough to remember to bring it up". I hope I never have a daughter.
Yup, the little girl is going in the basement the day she's born and not allowed out until she's 25 at minimum.
My daughter treats me with one part love, one part contempt, one part indifference. All I have to do to get my son's love is hang out in the same room. Women are complex creatures.
