What is a Father?

 A FATHER is a young boy playing with his tinker toys, a third grader playing in The Little League, an eighth grader graduating from elementary school, a scared freshman on the bus going to his first day in high school, an awkward guy asking a girl or a guy out on a date, a curious teen experimenting with "goodies" that his parents would be upset about if they knew (trust me. They had their suspicions.), the Bon vivant being measured for his first tux, the nervous young man, corsage in hand picking up his girl for the prom, the freshman in college not knowing to go left or go right, the mechanic wondering how he will get the grease off his hands, the lover wanting to make the object of his love his very own, the "what the hell am I doing, guy" watching the beloved walking up the aisle to be his forever, and finally the committed man holding his precious child and knowing he would rather die then let anything happen to this miracle and gift given to him. THAT IS A FATHER.

A very happy Father's Day to all!
