I had a Father's Day joke, but fell asleep in the chair, and forgotten what it was now. Sorry.

Going into rehab to visit hubby today. I'll take him in some fresh strawberries, which I did yesterday, but I'll add a small thermos of my freshly ground coffee. That will perk him up. (Actually, he's mostly doing fine, just missing good coffee.)

I am an extremely proud Papa right now.

the Pup and i went down to Montrose Point to do a little bird watching today. On the way home, about two blocks from the house, the car in front of me slams on the brakes and does a quick pull over. I stop and am like WTF?

the Pup says “is that person all right?” i look over, and i had completely missed the old lady lying on the sidewalk.

I pulled over myself and called 911 while the pup jumped out and administered first aid. (she had a badly lacerated palm and appeared to have hit her head as well.) the pup talked to her and kept pressure on the injury with a compress until the paramedics showed up.

he did a great job responding to the incident with compassion and knowledge of what to do.

the best father’s day present is knowing that you did a good job raising your kid.
