Happy Father's Day to all the great dads out there.
The kids picked out the perfect gift for Alan this year. Absolutely perfect. The look of excitement on Kieran's face as he waited for Alan to open the box was almost better than the gift though. Sheer joy in that face knowing he'd helped find something that his Dad would just love.
The perfect gift for the geek Dad who has everything under the sun he could need (because new clothes for work, although needed are just not exactly as fun to buy from a child's point of view): a genuine collectible Star Trek Pizza Cutter. This thing is a replica of the Enterprise and very cool. Not to mention that it will be used on an almost weekly basis around here on movie night (no, we don't believe in keeping dust catchers or fancy things around here, everything either gets used or given away, even the white embroidered apron is used because, well, it's an apron rather than a decoration).
Happy Father's Day to Alan and all the other men who are actually doing their jobs and being there for their kids and putting family ahead of golf or football games or time with the guys. Thank you for showing your kids that family is more important than stuff and that doing what's right is not always what is fun. We love you.
