Fathers Day 2011

When you're as fortunate as I am, every day is Fathers Day. The kids had cards and smiles for me. Then off to church with everyone, where Liam was Acolyte for the day.

Pastor Andy asked, "What did Your Father teach you?"

Meg said, "Happiness." Liam said, "Chicks dig scars."

Am I good, or what?

Afterward, we visited Cindy's Dad. Then I took Liam to Robinwood Lake so I could train in open water. He didn't think he'd like it. He was wrong. He loved it! We actually hung out more than I trained. Checking out the minnows. Tricking them into chasing little pebbles. Jumping off the pier. Doing cannon balls. Had a great time. And he wanted to stay longer than I did!

A very quiet, peaceful, restorative weekend. Just what I needed.
