This is my second entry for today because as I sat at my computer this morning, I was remembering last years Fathers Day. A funny thing happened last year, I forgot Fathers Day.
You see, Kathleen's birthday is June 18th and the last few years has fallen on or near Father's Day. Last year we had a party for her on Fathers Day. Early, early in the morning the kids gave Tom some cards and gifts and we did some yard work and then spent the day getting ready for and celebrating Kathleens birthday. I never thought of Fathers Day again....until the next morning when I woke up in horror!! I cried over it, I could not beleive that I had forgotten my very own Dad on Fathers Day!
I immediately went to my computer and composed an email to my Dad and I included a little poem. I just searched through my email until I found it so I could read it again, I thought I would share it with you all......I will pick it up where I have made my lousy excuse for forgetting and and am explaing how awful I felt..........
"So today I feel terrible for having forgot but I am banking on you understanding.
I could not have a better Father.....I am a lucky girl. I have enjoyed being your favorite daughter for years!
If I had remembered to call you I may have just said "Happy Fathers Day from your favorite daughter" but now as I sit here I have made a list of reasons I have the Best Dad and what my Dad has taught me."
I have the best Dad because he is very forgiving!
My Dad has taught me that you can't remember everything! ( Right?)
I have the best Dad because he tells Fantastic Stories!
My Dad has taught me to have fun telling stories too!I have the best Dad because he makes yummy food, especially pizza
My Dad has taught me some great techniques...especially when I make extra yummy pizza!
I have the best Dad because he can fix anything
My Dad has taught me to try and fix things, like cesspools and toilets...
I have the best Dad because he learns new things
My Dad has taught me to keep learning new things!
I have the best Dad because he can tap dance
My Dad has taught me not to believe everything I see!
I have the best Dad because he makes me laugh!
My Dad has taught me that making people laugh and enjoy themselves is a gift in itself!
I have the best Dad because I do!
My Dad has taught me that!
Happy Fathers Day I love You!
your favorite daughter,
Tricia
