A Grandfather’s Love, Demonstrated in Freeze Pops

As the weather starts to break a bit, we make plans for Spring Break, and I book my kids in a variety of Summer camps,  I am reminded that this summer will be different because we won't have my dad to share the summer with,  My dad kept these on the rotation, in every flavor. Not even sure how he gets them now because I think they are the equivalent of "kid crack"--made with artificial coloring, flavoring, and sugar . To my kids though, these freeze pops were love and summer wrapped in a bow. (As an Amazon associate, I am compensated for qualifying purchases.)  

Let's Hear it for the Daddies (Happy Father's Day!)



A Daddy and his baby 


Reading all of the Facebook tributes to fathers got me thinking about the men in my life who have stepped up and showed out--showing other fathers how it's done. Any man with sperm can "donate" sperm to make a baby. However, only those with courage demonstrate the love and support that goes along with being a father.  So, I salute all of those guys who took the road most traveled, but fraught with turns and bends in the undergrowth.


Those men make their kids feel loved. And they do the job every single day. 


I love reposting a poem from a prior Father's Day that I wrote because it captures my feelings about fathers. Fathers help make the world go 'round and make all of the babies feel loved and discover their potential. Let's hear it for the daddies!!!
