Today the girls and I spent the day celebrating dad even though he was at work. We made his favorite dinner - ham, potato salad, three bean salad, buttermilk biscuits, and chocolate pudding cake. Everyone made a card celebrating all that dad is to them. The white board above the kitchen table was decorated with a special message. We cleaned the house and removed some clutter, one of his least favorite things. There was even a small gift to wrap in the Sunday comics. While all of us wish that dad could have spent his special day with us, it was good to spend the day doing things that would make him happy.

So when he finally made it home, all the girls myself included ran to great him at the door with hugs, kisses and well wishes. The supper was perfect. And he even noticed the clutter was gone!!! Happy Father's Day sweetie. I hope you know you were celebrated all day, as you are most days.

Sending Father's Day wishes to all you papas out there.
