Things I've Learned from Fathers

Tweet

I have several fathers in my life that have taught me many things. My own father, my father-in-law and my uncle who had the rare opportunity of helping to raise me during my fabulous teenage years. And here are several things they taught me.

Father in Law:

Cats are stupid.

When in doubt, make cookies instead of buying presents.

Always have multiple types of glue on hand.

Acetone found in model airplane craft supplies is the perfect nail polish remover.

My cooking is often better than my Mother in Laws.

Uncle:

Sunny days are reserved for golf.

If your child leaves garbage all over your counters, put the garbage on their bed.

Wrestling is stupid. But we're still going to watch it.

Children should not be spoiled. Grandchildren on the other hand . . . .

Dad:

The 80's were the greatest decade ever.

Rock music is the only music.

If you're in a fight, you better win.

Pan frying steak is a sin against nature.

Happy Father's Day to the men who've taught me all the important stuff.
