[Rather than just a single day to honor dads, I thought I would share some
father-fodder each day for a fortnight leading up to Father’s Day. Feel
free to use any you like.]
“A father is neither an anchor to hold us back, nor a sail to take us there,
but a guiding light whose love shows us the way.”
~Alexander Pope
“Blessed indeed is the man who hears many gentle voices call him ‘Father’.”
~Lydia Marie Child
Favorite sayings from my Dad (Bob Griffin Sr, 1918-1999
“When I say no, I mean no. Why? Because I’m your Dad, that’s why.”
“If you don’t stop crying, I’ll give you something to cry about.”
“I’m spanking you because I love you. This hurts me a lot more than it hurts
you.”
“Don’t ask me, ask your mother.”
“This is your last warning.”
“Do what I say, not what I do.”
“When I was your age.”
“If I have to stop the car . . .”
