Happy Dadd Day

Happy Father’s Day!

I want to thank my own dad for being a great father to 10 kids (yes, there were ten of us!), and always being calm, cool, and (for the most part) collected. I always remember my friends saying to me, “Nothing fazes your dad, does it?” I guess you had to be this way with 10 kids in the house….

Since I am now a father, I have tried to practice some of that cool-headedness. Of course, I don’t have ten children… only three. I am the proud father of three girls. And based on how beautiful they are, I know I am headed for trouble.

So I laughed when I saw these pictures.

As my daughters reach dating age (around 40), I plan to put a sign above our front door which says, “I have 40 acres, a shotgun, and a shovel, and I am not afraid to use all three on any boy who touches my daughters.”
