This is one of the first father's day I have not spent with my own father..and it is a little rough...
we would be out on the golf course and then grilling out afterwards...actually my dad would be grilling and I would be talking his leg off!!
I have had the privilege of having so many wonderful men in my life- my grandfather who unfortunately left this world too early, a father in law EJ Trial who treats me just like his own daughter, a awesome brother in law who is a great father to my niece and nephew Syd and Sawyer, and now I am having the privilege to watch all my girlfriends who are having children- watch their husbands and what great dad's they are. I always knew my friends made very wise choices about the men they decided to marry (i mean would anyone expect me to be friends with anything less than highly intelligent..educated..driven women??)...but seeing how they take care of some of the most special women in my life and how they mold into being a great dad...it just makes your heart so happy!
So many people say..I bet (talking about the man) he wants a boy..or he wants a son...and while he might...there is a special bond between a dad and his little girl....that one can not explain or understand but one that is life long.
A daughter will always need her father...whether she is grown and married...just call my dad and ask him....he will tell you he still gets plenty of .."um dad" calls (even though we are all 3 married)
So happy fathers day to all you great and wonderful men out there...you have touched so many lives....
