I almost managed to skip Father's Day this year. Almost.
I wasn't angst-ridden about it; I wasn't ducking it determinedly; I was just ignoring it.
But I called the boys to me this morning and told them that today was Father's Day. Yayyy! That surprised me. Rock immediately got some construction paper and cut out and decorated a heart for Nick. HardPlace asked for the book where we write letters to Dad.
No fanfare. No special memorial. No tears. No emotional memory-fest.
Just a nod to the man none of us will ever forget.
Another Day

Kids are amazing and awesome in their clear-eyed assessment of situations and reactions.
Very cool.
