Happy Father's Day


The story (and nearly forty-eight years ago, we could perhaps call it legend) goes that my father got his hair cut during my mother's labor and birth with their first child, me.

But I apparently never cared and was a daddy's girl, always.


Happy Father's Day, Dad. I love you.

As for The Husband, he participated in each of our three children's births:

The Chef at work

and has been a superb father ever since.

Happy Father's Day, dear Husband!

Happy Father's Day to all you fathers out there.

  10. is it just the way the fathers have their heads turned towards the miracle of their child?
    the dark hair...devoted eyes?
    or is it the light of love itself..
    that makes the resemblance of the fathers so touching, so a kin?
