Father’s Day

    Father’s Day breakfast:Heather set forth blueberries, sliced organic banana, raisins, spiral-cut Michigan gala apples, organic California seedless red grapes and sweet Valencia orange alongside a bowl of yogurt laid out like a four star restaurant; all accompanied by a mug of coffee brewed from freshly ground Sumatran fair-trade, organic coffee beans cut with Michigan organic skim milk. As I ate and shared all this with my daughters I could think of no better breakfast in my life.

    Soon after that was a bike ride with my girls (and a tag-along friend of Sam’s) followed by a lunch-time trip to an arcade where an audience of strangers who didn’t know any better applauded my ITG play. Sam then shared a game of DDR with me and played many ticket games. She ultimately chose to bank her tickets in the form of a hand-written IOU rather than cash them in for the junk under the counter. She says the tickets were more valuable than the prizes because she can remember the fun better that way. Huh! She’s growing up faster than the grass in my back yard.

    Lastly, we ate a dinner of steak with my step-dad and now I’m home for the evening
.
    It wasn’t perfect; a paper wasp stung Heather and I seem to have lightly sprained my thumb. But these annoyances merely prove that today wasn’t a dream, and I can honestly say this was the best Father’s day I’ve ever had… though I’ve only had nine of them.

    Hope it was a great one for everyone else out there, and g’night.
