With Father's Day approaching, just wanted to take a moment to honor all the dad's out there. We love you & are grateful to you.

And now that I'm older, I KNOW there wasn't a invisible elk in the room!! :laugh:

Happy Father's Day to all the MFP daddies too!! blowkiss.gif

    I don't know where I'd be without my Dad! If only they knew how much their little girls worshipped them!! Even if my Dad HAS gone on holiday to the south of France for Fathers Day :grumble:

    I hope all you Dads out there have a wonderful day :heart:

    Don't hate me, but....... :laugh:


    A man is waiting for wife to give birth. The doctor comes in and informs the dad that his son was born without torso, arms or legs. The son is just a head! But the dad loves his son and raises him as well as he can, with love and compassion. After 21 years, the son is old enough for his first drink. Dad takes him to the bar and tearfully tells the son he is proud of him.

    Dad orders up the biggest, strongest drink for his boy. With all the bar patrons looking on curiously and the bartender shaking his head in disbelief, the boy takes his first sip of alcohol. Swoooop! A torso pops out!

    The bar is dead silent; then bursts into a whoop of joy. The father, shocked, begs his son to drink again. The patrons chant

    "Take another drink"! The bartender still shakes his head in dismay.

    Swoooop! Two arms pops out. The bar goes wild. The father, crying and wailing, begs his son to drink again. The patrons chant, "Take another drink"! The bartender ignores the whole affair. By now the boy is getting tipsy, and with his new hands he reaches down, grabs his drink and guzzles the last of it. Swoooop! Two legs pop out.

    The bar is in chaos. The father falls to his knees and tearfully thanks God. The boy stands up on his new legs and stumbles to the left.... then to the right.... right through the front door, into the street, where a truck runs over him and kills him instantly.

    The bar falls silent. The father moans in grief. The bartender sighs and says, "That boy should have quit while he was a head."

    Got that right haha!!
  • My kids brought home their father's day presents they made at school. All are so cute. My step daughter's included a poem they wrote in the card they made. It is so sweet and makes me misty , even if Im a momma and not a daddy.



    "Walk a little slower Daddy,"
    said a child so small,
    "I'm following in your footsteps
    and I don't want to fall.

    Sometimes your steps are very fast,
    Sometimes they're hard to see;
    So walk a little slower, Daddy,
    For you are leading me. :heart:

    Someday when I'm all grown up,
    You're what I want to be;
    Then I will have a little child
    Who'll want to follow me.

    And I would want to lead just right,
    And know that I was true,
    So walk a little slower, Daddy,
    For I must follow you."
