Title: Happy Fathers Day!
Post by perceptions_now on Sep 5th, 2010 at 11:23am
Fathers Day thru the Ages
4 years: My Daddy can do anything!
7 years: My Dad knows a lot…a whole lot.
8 years: My father does not know quite everything.
12 years: Oh well, naturally Father does not know that either.
14 years: Oh, Father? He is hopelessly old-fashioned.
21 years: Oh, that man-he is out of date!
25 years: He knows a little bit about it, but not much.
30 years: I must find out what Dad thinks about it.
35 years: Before we decide, we will get Dad's idea first.
50 years: What would Dad have thought about that?
60 years: My Dad knew literally everything!
65 years: I wish I could talk it over with Dad once more.

Becoming a father is easy enough, but being one can be very rough”
Wilhelm Busch

A king, realizing his incompetence, can either delegate or abdicate his duties. A father can do neither. If only sons could see the paradox, they would understand the dilemma.”
Marlene Dietrich

“Sometimes the poorest man leaves his children the richest inheritance.”
Ruth E. Renkel

“When I was a boy of 14, my father was so ignorant I could hardly stand to have the old man around. But when I got to be 21, I was astonished at how much the old man had learned in seven years.”
Mark Twain


To ALL Fathers, ENJOY the day!

When I was 16, my parents were total bloody morons, but when I was 25, I was amazed at how smart they had got. :) :)

Old as she was, she still missed her daddy sometimes.  ~Gloria Naylor



There's something like a line of gold thread running through a man's words when he talks to his daughter, and gradually over the years it gets to be long enough for you to pick up in your hands and weave into a cloth that feels like love itself.  ~John Gregory Brown

There's one sad truth in life I've found
While journeying east and west -
The only folks we really wound
Are those we love the best.
We flatter those we scarcely know,
We please the fleeting guest,
And deal full many a thoughtless blow
To those who love us best.
~Ella Wheeler Wilcox


Happy fathers day, dad, and to all dads, wherever, whoever they be on this special day, our fathers day 2010.

I got a couple of fantastic gifts.

Bit concerned where an 18 month old gets the money for them though.
