Another Birthday!

Yes another birthday in the family .. it's my Daddy's big day! He is by far the hardest person to buy for .. he has EVERY tool a man could want .. if he needs something he just goes out and buys it .. and he doesn't wear a tie, that often! So ... what do ya buy him??????? How about a Canuck jersey .. how about a ROBERTO LUONGO jersey .. yes one of the most wanted jerseys on the market right now! I think this will be his favorite gift that we have ever given him. I'm actually very excited to see him open this great treasure.

What can I tell you about my Dad .. well he is a very hard worker, in fact everything we have today is because my Dad has worked his ass off .. he would give any member of his family his last penny just to see them happy, family is number one to him, he loves his grandchildren more then life itself, he's very caring, very understanding, gives great advice, is always there for you when you need him, he's the biggest teddy bear even though people that have worked for him may care to differ, he's very smart, an awesome woodworker, loves his shop, loves to just hang out and build things .. I have a hunch that we might all be getting whirly birds for our yards as Dad gets older.... he's a great listener, has done extremely well for himself .... he's the BEST Dad EVER!

I found this poem and it really "hit the nail on the head" .. I'm going to have it framed so he can hang it on the wall of his NEW workshop!

PAPA'S TOOL SHED

Papa's tool shed is a special place,

Full of mystery and delight,

Where little kids can come and watch

While Papa builds a kite.

Each day before the sunset,

Papa is always there,

The sound of his saw and hammer

Filling the evening air.

Papa can fix anything

And make it look brand-new-

He fixes toy cars and airplanes,

Trucks and trailers, too.

There are many happy moments

Pleasant to recall,

But Papa in his tool shed

Is the nicest one of all.
