I sent out several notes to about 20 dads, asking them to take part in my latest blog. But I only got a few replies, and that is copacetic.
Because for one, I wanted this to be short and sweet. As a result, to the point and done and over with.
Father’s Day is tomorrow, although my dad is deceased. I appreciated him being in my life for the moments that were allowed.
So, I asked a few dads questions about their parenting and life as a Father. And I wanted to feature them in this blog to let everyone know that their is room for daddies in a child’s life.
