Sarah Daddy Day....



Today for most of the world was Saturday....in my world it's called "Sarah-Daddy-Day".

For the regular viewers of this blog (yeah, right, like anyone is reading this) you will soon realize that Sarah, our 4 1/2 year old little girl tends to make sure our universe revolves around her.

Saturdays are special for us...I get to spend time with our little girl, my little girl gets to spend time with her Daddy, my wife gets a break. One of the weird things about having a child in your 40s that you didn't expect to have is you feel so fortunate you tend to turn them in to the "Golden Child".

We are no different....we spent her first few years making sure her crown fit comfortably. There is no doubt...this has bit us in the ass in a number of ways....a topic for future blogs.

Today was kind of a typical SDD...we went out for lunch and then to the park. We'd still be there right now if Golden Child had her way. This evening GC and I went out for Ben and Jerry's (double break day for Mommy...Daddy got a nap in the middle)....my hope is the sugar will wear off before midnight.

Sarah was "chatty" today. I love that as she gets older she talks up a storm about all of the things we've done together. It's important to me to know that if I get hit by a bus tomorrow she will know her father loved her.

Every women I've ever met who had problems in their lives had bad relationships with their fathers. With every push of the swing at the park it is my dream that Golden Child will eventually be well adjusted Golden Woman.
