The Face of Fathers Day

This blog wouldn’t complete without one dedicated to Fathers Day, so I had to contribute.

What is the face of Fathers Day? For me it’s not a camping trip, or fishing, or working on a barn together with hardware tools catching up on work talk. It’s not changing the oil of a car together while mom is inside baking cookies. Or an annual baseball game with beers afterwards.

The face of Fathers Day for me comes with two men, two generations, and two hearts larger than a football field. The face of Fathers Day carries with it two examples as to who the ideal man is and should be in my life.

This Fathers Day, Sunday won’t be with the sacred Jim Dandy brotherhood, but another tradition…Kentucky Fried Chicken, extra crispy, professional bowling on television, and the routine questions on how long I have in school.

But one thing I can not deny, is this is at least the face of Fathers Day for me is one that has also made my heart larger than that of any football field.

Enjoy your Fathers Day.
