Beautiful Father's Day Post

I spent at least half an hour on two different occasions trying to find a Father's Day card that was appropriate for my relationship with my Dad. I failed, and ended up getting a stupid generic "best wishes" card instead. In my search, I stumbled across cards for "Dads to Be," which was a nice surprise. But I didn't get one for Scott, due to our superstitious horror of assuming everything will be okay. And because, really, he already is a father.

Anyway, one of my favorite bloggers had a beautiful post yesterday about Father's Day cards. I'm putting up a link to that post here in honor of Scott -- who is and always will be a great dad.

I'm telling you, we should make a greeting card company covering topics Hallmark doesn't want to touch. We could be gazillionaires.

Peri, I agree. We could make a fortune!

That was a beautiful post- thank you for sharing it with us. I do always hate how there never seems to be cards that convey what I wish I had the words to say. Hallmark seems to only be for those people that have a perfect life. If you guys do start that card company I'll be sure to buy from you.

Mostly, I just hold my breath and pray a lot.
