Father’s Day is tomorrow, and I know some of us on this forum are actual fathers. Most of us probably had fathers, though I suspect some of you are actually alien test-tube babies.  A quick internet search revealed this bit of history about Father’s Day:  Quote: |
The first Father's Day was observed on June 19, 1910 in Spokane Washington. At about the same time in various towns and cities across American other people were beginning to celebrate a "father's day." In 1924 President Calvin Coolidge supported the idea of a national Father's Day. Finally in 1966 President Lyndon Johnson signed a presidential proclamation declaring the 3rd Sunday of June as Father's Day.

I have two amazing daughters, 2.75 years old and 3 months. Being a father and having these kids is really the best thing I have ever done. So, I was wondering how many others are fathers – I know Leedog is, but who else? Also, don’t forget to call your Dads tomorrow! Oh, and no more of those ugly ties, please.

I be a Father of an eight year old little girl. I know it's hard to believe, but it's true.
Favorite moments.
When she graduated from Preschool.
