My Dad Is…
My father is the greatest illiterate person in the world, Poorest of all the men in the world, I considered him as the Ugliest person in the world, Weakest of all in the World, and A man who knows nothing in this World.
A Dad Strikes Out
I took my twin ten-year-old sons to a couple of Angels games this week, and I was shocked-shocked!-to discover just how little they knew about baseball.
My Father | Women Are Their Fathers Too
This has been the premise we have existed under for all of our existence – Women – We are our mothers. YES – we are, BUT we are also our fathers and to understand any women you must listen carefully to how she talks about her father.

A Prince Among Men
My dad has always been there for all of us in many ways, someone everyone could count on. He has been the model for the kind of man my female cousins hoped to marry, and the uncle (and great-uncle) to whom all the young children were drawn. Now he’s a grandfather of four, generous with each grandchild in unique ways.
Life Lessons
When I was a little girl, I felt a great deal of instability–living away from home, divorced parents, a stepmother, younger siblings–being in a blended family can cause feelings of insecurity. But through it all, you remained the one constant in my life.
Dad and Me
We hear so much said about Moms … the books, the talk shows … all recording countless stories of a mother’s influence and nurturing. While I couldn’t agree more with the view on Moms … what about all the Dads out there?
A Caring Disciplinarian
My Dad believed it was important that his children should be disciplined and always respectful to others particularly our elders and he never believed for example that an adult would ever say anything untrue about a child.
