That cartoon above says it all for us Dads. We need all the help we can get...especially from our kids.
Happy Fathers Day to all the Dads out there. It's not easy being a Dad. It's the toughest daily work out there not including being a Mom. But, the positive rewards of being Dad far outweighs the negatives.
On this day, I remember those Dads who have gone on before me and who have given me an instructional/survival manual by example on how to be a good Dad. My father, Jim, and my father-in-law, Jack, come instantly to mind. Though imperfect, they were gentlemen, strong, industrious, faithful and loving. Their example of being Dad has served me well in my own role of fatherhood. I don't always get it right but it's not from a lack of effort.
So, enjoy this day, Dads. The "honey-dos" can wait till tomorrow. You have a rightly-earned pass to do whatever. For me, I hope to see Rory win his first major in the US Open on NBC.
