The writer stresses the role of church on Mother’s Day. This morning our family went to church to celebrate Father’s Day. The sermon was about the role of the father in the family and why he is so important. I do not consider this day wasted at all.

Nor do I. Fathers are to be revered and respected. Just as I do mine. If we had more fathers acting like fathers the country would be a much nicer place. There are few more deserving of the honor of a day out of the year, than Fathers!

We went to church and heard an excellent sermon about the father in the parable of the prodigal son.

Then we took Dad out for barbecue and gave him some gifts that he wanted, left him alone long enough to watch the new Rambo movie...yes he can do that every week if he wants and yes, I do wait on him a bit on the weekends. Every weekday, however, he leaves the house around 6:00 a.m. to go to work and usually does not get home until 11 or 12 hours later. He works hard so I can stay home and homeschool our one remaining child and so our kids can go to college. I think Father's Day is great and I am privileged to pamper him a little on the weekends on a regular basis. He takes great care of us!
