I really should drink two cups of coffee before speaking

by The Boss

I was dragging this morning, I had a long night with one of the kids. While sipping my coffee, all of the sudden I remembered it was Father’s Day! It isn’t, but I don’t figure that out till later. So, I quickly yelled through the bathroom door to Ben, “Happy Father’s Day!” He replied, “Thanks! I didn’t know today was Father’s Day!”

I got on Facebook, and wondered why no one was saying “Happy Father’s Day to all you dad’s out there!”  “Come on Facebook! Stop being a big jerk!” In retrospect, I’m so glad I wasn’t all…

Brandice Williams Senecal GAH! Am I the only one who’s gonna wish all the dads out there a Happy Father’s Day! GEEZ!

Not only have I forgotten it’s Father’s Day, Ben has planned to go look at a bike for me today. When he leaves, I tell the kids to draw him some pictures, and every time they asked me if today was “the real Father’s Day” I said, “YES! Hurry up before he gets back!” I tell them they can use scissors and tape and anything they want, just make it special! They make a huge mess, and I am in the kitchen when Aidan yells, “MOM! Daddy’s got a surprise for you!” He bought me the bike. On Father’s Day.

Later on, Ben calls Jacob (his brother) and he doesn’t answer. I said, “It’s Father’s Day. They’re probably out doing something really special.” All the while wondering what amazing supper I’ll gonna make, to make up for this horrible thing I’ve done. Ben call’s Jacob’s cell, and starts to talk to him. Then he asks, “Got any special plans for Father’s Day?” Based on what Ben said, I’m pretty sure Jacob said, “It’s Father’s Day? Are you sure?” Then, Ben turned around and looked at the calendar and said, “You’re right, that’s next weekend.”

At this point, I just feel stupid. Then, I feel awesome because I got a new bike.

Happy Father’s Day on the Sunday before Father’s Day!

    HAHAHAHA!!
    #1. Thank you for blogging again. I’m pretty sure everyone has either forgotten about mine or doesn’t care anymore, but I am constantly checking to see if you have a new post.

    #2. My aunt did that to me today. She said “Is Jacob having a good Fathers Day?” And I swear I had a heart attack right then and there in my living room. Then she said.. “Ooooh yeah. That’s next week”.

    #3. You are faar far from “stupid”. Let’s just say your “special”.

    LOVE YOU.
