Father's Day
    Has a simple rule:
            Let them give
            Let them do
Something they want you to want.

Rule Two is: Want it.

The best part is, you DO like it, no matter what it is they do or give or show....

My favorite Father's Day gift of all time: A lawn mower..... strange, but true.....they wanted me to have something that would make things easier for me, and it does! I think of that almost every time I use it....which is year-round, here in Southern California.

Second favorite? The gas powered weed whacker they gave me last year. Why? Cuz they love me, of course......

Ed

Within the blessing of a lawnmower....love is the true gift!  Maybe this year they will give  you a weekly commitment to use those tools!  Happy Father's Day, Ed!

So few words... and yet... they say so much about the man you are... and the Dad you are... and what they say is incredibly beautiful and so very loving. *S*

What a world this would be if every child could know such a example. *S* I'm late with my wishes... but I do hope your Father's Day was a wonderful one... you definitely deserve it! *S*

Beautiful work!

I had the same thought as Dixie...

Me?  I told the Father of the house
to go out and buy any type of power tool
he desired...



Give 'em what they want, I say!

Any type? With that kind of guidance, I might come home with a tool that would benefit both.....
