Today is a day that we celebrate dad!!! I want to thank all the men that have stepped up and have been a fabulous dad to their own children and to those that weren't theirs.. Those are the best types of dads.. the ones that can love children that other men may have created.. My children are blessed with a good dad and for that I am so thankful.. I myself wasn't that lucky.. so I know the damage that it can do to have a father in your life who doesn't care about his children.. it is hard, and by the time he did start caring, I was over it.. You can't treat a child with neglect and disgust for 17 years of their life and then all of a sudden decide that you want to be part of their life.. just doesn't work that way.. I lived next door to a wonderful family while growing up and their dad is still to this day a wonderful man.. I had a few glimpses of what a good father was growing up, just never knew that security and love from my own, ever.. So, if you have been blessed with a Dad who has been there for you, loved you, talked to you, laughed with you and cared enough to discipline you; Thank him.. because the alternative is a very sad and lonely place to be..
Happy Father's Day to all the wonderful Dad's out there!!!!
