Father's Day

Today was a hard day. We never really made a big deal about Father's Day with my dad - just a funny card, maybe pancakes for breakfast, take him out to dinner or make his favorite dinner at home. No ties or watches or plasma TVs or anything fancy. He always said his favorite Father's Day gift was me: when I was born, they brought me home from the hospital on Father's Day. (This was back when new moms got to stay in the hospital for a week or so after having a baby.)

Happy Father's Day, Dad.
