Dad Comes Home
When Dad comes home its Holiday, just any time of year.
My Daddy makes me glad to see him when hes here.
I think my Mom gets jealous, because I make a fuss,
But heck, Ive got her all the time, and Dad comes home to Us!!
I greet him at the doorway. I like to get a hug.
Id run to get there quicker but I stumble on the rug.
But Daddy always catches me, he watches me real good,
And Id go off with him to work, at least, I wish I could.
But I must stay with Mommy, we need to practice smile,
So that we will be ready when he comes back after while.
It is a game like peek-a-boo. We play it every day.
We have to do it all the time. Hes not so good at play.

I was wondering if I would run into her again. Of course I could always ask the girl who does my hair who she is, etc.etc. I believe just smelling them made me gain weight~~LOL~~It was way past lunch that day and being a bit hungry makes everything much better!
I will check into it and see what I can do, Polly!
To: WVNan

Thank You, Nan.
A special wish for a Happy Father's Day to Mr. WV.
Hope both of you had a Blessed Sunday.

Bloopers in the Church BulletinI am new on this particular thread...been around FR for 8 years, but new here. Doing a catch up today. After church we just came home and have been kicking back and relaxing!
Using this time to " get aquainted with whose here"... so many are here that I know! yeah!
I just read these bloopers to my hubby and have been laughing so hard, tears wouldn't stop from the laughter. Truly a " merry heart doeth good like medicine"!! Thanks for the laugh LadyJag~!

Dolly, are you trying to say the Lakers are going to lose it tonight?
LOL:-)
To: Kitty Mittens
Kitty, I adore this picture and the way you framed it... Wow. That is a wonderful little flower and, of course, the word of God is the most beautiful of all. (((Hugs)))
To: OESY
Thanks Oesy, for the good information about Dave Barry! Its nice to know he is still kicking around! According to your information he has done many more things than I realized!
I didn’t read this in your information but seems I remember a 30 min. t.v. show that was broadcast on the educational channel (P.B.S.). It was once a week and very funny and entertaining. I hope I am not mixing him up with someone else. I believe I am correct on it but it was a very good little show! A friend of mine let me know about it. My friend is no longer with us so I can get no information there!
Anyway, thanks again!
To: MEG33
