Fathers Day

Normally I don't give much of a care for Fathers Day, or Mothers Day, or any synthetic holiday (except System Administrator Appreciation Day - we fixed your email, we deserve Cheetos, dang it). I gotta admit tho, getting these from the kids was a nice touch:

First from Abigail:

Then from Zeke:

The poem reads: "Walk a little slower Daddy", said a child so small.  "I'm following in your footsteps and I don't want to fall.  Sometimes your steps are very fast. Sometimes they're hard to see.  So walk a little slower Daddy, for you are leading me.  Someday when I am all grown up you're what I want to be.  Then I will have a little child who'll want to follow me.  And I would want to lead just right, and know that I was true.  So walk a little slower, Daddy, for I must follow you".

And finally, a bag of salt water taffy (the best kind of taffy!) and 3 Lego minifigs (the best kind of fig!):

Definitely better than a tie.
