HAPPY FATHERS' DAY! Here are some great quotes in your honor.
Fatherhood is pretending the present you love most is soap-on-a-rope. - Bill Cosby
When I was a boy of fourteen, my father was so ignorant I could hardly stand to have the old man around. But when I got to be twenty-one, I was astonished at how much he had learned in seven years. - Mark Twain
A truly rich man is one whose children run into his arms when his hands are empty. - Unknown
There are three stages of a man's life. He believes in Santa Claus, he doesn't believe in Santa Claus, he is Santa Claus. - Unknown
And this one is my favorite:
My sons and his friends used to play ball in my backyard. I got horrified when the balls hit my roses and I would come out and say, "You guys are killing my roses." My husband would come out and say, "We are not raising roses. We are raising boys." My sons and their friends killed more roses than you could imagine while they were growing up but my husband and I brought up good kids and they and their friends had a wonderful time playing at my yard when they were young. They all remember that. - Rosalinda Morgan

Rosalinda,
I loved your story about the Roses! I also loved your husband's reply! Sounds like a great family!
Judy
Hi Rosalinda: Great quotes - thanks for sharing them with us!

Judy - Thanks. The roses have been replaced several times. Now the boys are all grown up and they still tell the story to their new friends.
Matt - Thanks for visiting. Have a great week.
