My hubs comes home Sunday nite from his routine weekend stay with his girlfriend (leaves Friday evening...wastes no time to clean up after he gets home from work, then makes his mad dash out.....And returns Sunday evening...in time to bish about how I don't have a dinner waiting for him...omg, lol...this man hasn't a clue).
He parades about, verbally stating to himself, (in front of our 13 yr old daughter, of course), "Happy Fathers Day, dad"....Naturally, attempting to get a response from my daughter.

I say to him, "Any one man can plant a seed and leave it to grow on its own. But, the man who remains and nurtures its growth is the man who earns the honor of the harvest".

Needless to say, (as with most men of his caliber), he needed translation...Uhmmmmm. Duhhh? I told him to think about it some..lol. Though, I know he isn't capable of understanding. I didn't take it any further.
Any man who needs to have the definition of what being a father means translated to him is a man who shouldn't even be fathering. PERIOD.

My heart to all those who has been denied a father's presence, and moreso to those who's father's remained and abused them
