You know what’s crazy? I’ll tell you what’s crazy.
Father’s Day in a Mother’s world.
Sunday June 19th was Father’s day. Dad’s all over this country got cards and breakfast in bed. Phone calls rang and text messages chimed.
While we father’s appreciate Father’s Day, we are not under any misconceptions.
We realize that when it comes to PARENTAL DAYS in the cosmic order of life, Mother’s Day is first class and Father’s day is the back of the bus.
It’s ok. That’s life. Everybody has a dad, but dad’s aren’t moms. Never have been. Never will be.
Mom is the incubator of life, the portal of the birth.
You’ve never heard anyone say “Father’s Milk” have you?
Moms get roses and brunch and home made cards. Dads get a tie from Target.
I’m a dad. Even I know that father’s day is a made up Hallmark event.
If Mother’s Day is the Fourth of July, Father’s Day is Presidents Day. The only people who care about Presidents day are government workers and bank employees.
To my dad I say Happy Father’s day. Thanks for taking the time to make me way back when.
To my buddies, I say happy Father’s Day. Take a break from the yard work and the garage de-cluttering. Have a beer and smoke a cigar. Take stock in what you mean to your kids and what they mean to you.
While Mother’s are Top Shelf tequila, Dads are pretty special too.
I hope you took a moment to wish your dad happy Father’s Day. I hope you think about him and call him on days that aren’t man made artificial holidays.
If you called your pops yesterday, cheers to you. You know what, he loves hearing from you, so call him today and tell him that he’s special to you everyday.
Father’s Day. It ain’t Mother’s Day, but it sure should be.
And that is crazy.
