Today is fathers day in the united states. If you are a dad or if you are someone who plays the dad role in your family, then happy fathers day.
This year is the first fathers day we’ve had since my father passed away. Jen and Bellana went to the grave with me. I am so grateful to them for that gesture. It means so much. I miss my father quite a bit, and I miss him a little extra today.
Are all the dads out there having a Happy Fathers day? I hope so. I have been so focused on my mother’s situation that I haven’t been spending enough time on my father’s. Today I got to spend a couple of hours just hanging out with him. We watched a few innings of the Red Sox game together. It was lovely. I need to do more of that.
As for all of the other dads out there, I hope today is a good day. I would like to note that my father always comments about how it never rains on Mothers Day, but it always rains on Fathers day. True to form, it did rain in our neck of the woods this morning.
So have a happy Fathers Day, fathers and try to keep dry.
