Hope everyone has a nice Father's Day - it is kind of bitter around here - DH has 4 grown kids but they never call on Father's Day - well, one did about 5 years ago. No cards either, which is OK but a phone call would really make his day.

Maybe you should call them and ask them to call dad?

DH wouldn't want that - it wouldn't mean anything if they only did it because they were asked to.

no, I am not their mother, just stepmother although they probably don't think of me as such. I am sure that on Mother's Day they probably got together with their mother (when she was alive).


I did not have the world's greatest relationship with my dad, but I always made sure to call him on Father's day, his birthday, and Christmas if I could not be with him. Just the thought of him not getting a call - I couldn't stand it.


Now I have to go and repeat my favorite mantra --

"I release the need to determine how things SHOULD be."

Oh I see well make sure you give him a huge hug today!!

My dad is both of my parents pretty much.
