It's my Dad's 70th birthday today and I'm writing a
blog about him because he is the perfect example of what all men should aspire
to be. Okay, maybe I'm bias, however, bear with me and you'll know why I
feel the way I do.
People always say that girls marry someone like their father. Ummm...let
me be the first to admit that that is not always true. Do I want Madelyne
to grow up to be with someone like her father? Good Lord and all the
Saints, can I get a "hell no" up in here? But thankfully, I
don't have to worry about that. See, she may have half of his DNA but
thank GOD she is nothing like him. She doesn't even know him. He
hasn't seen her since 2012.
The last time I talked to her father is when I called him crying, asking him to
call me back because he needed to give his consent for Madelyne to receive
therapy. He never got back to me. That's when I had my epiphany.
Why the hell am I trying to make this man...this thing...care about his
daughter when she has a perfect male role model in her life since the day she
was born?
My Dad worked and my Mom was a SAHM but he always had time for my brother and
I. He never missed my softball games. In high school, he left work
early to make it to every single one. He practiced with me on the
weekends. Took me to the batting cages. Those are some of my
favorite memories. "
