My Happy Father’s Day
on June 15th, 2008 - PersonalAdd comments
I just woke up. At 10 am. That is nice – I never sleep that late.
And then, at my computer keyboard, where she knew I would see it first thing, is a beautiful letter from my 17 year old daughter, which reads, in part:
“…I know when I talk about you to my fiends they are always jealous of the relationship and bond we have, so I know it is something rare and special”
I won’t share the entire thing – it is special for me alone.
But I can’t imagine waking up to a better gift!
Happy Father’s Day, Dads!

Your relationship with your daughter is truly unique and special. How fabulous that you have been able to create and maintain a connection with her - not many dads or moms are able to do that during the pre-teen and teen years!

@Karen - Her and I (and my son) have been through a great deal together. Corporate relocations, military relocations, four hurricanes in two months - we got to be very close, and luckily have stayed that way. My kids are my best friends!
