Today is the day that we honor the people who:
Taught us how to mow the lawn
Were the head of our homes
Shoveled the driveway
Taught us how to drive
Remodeled the kitchen
Bought the cars
Grilled the meat
Built the swingsets
Taught us how to ride our bikes
Drove the car on vacations
Fixed our toys
And a million other "Dad" jobs.
In my house, that was my mom. She had to do the Mommy jobs and the Daddy jobs. And she did them both, SO well. She's my roll model as a single mom. I hope I can do half the job she did (not saying I turned out that great, just that she did a great job as a single mom). So... Happy Father's Day, Mom.
