Daddy-O

A few years ago a friend of ours was making extensive father's day plans with his buddies. Golf, steak dinner, etc. His daughter, who is very wise (and who was probably 5 or 6 at the time) asked him simply, "if its father's day wouldn't you just want to be a father?" So sweet, so simple, so right on.

We followed her wise logic and kept today a simple celebration of being a father. Which includes lots of piggy back rides and smiles.

Precious. I looked at Mitch at one point and said "you are really lucky you know"...that "just being the father" is so wise and so very lovely. And, cute pic!
