I Got A Note Today From My Son.... Dad, You're amazing! I want to be...

How perfectly lovely. And while you are probably being too harsh with yourself, if there are any chinks there that you don't want your son to wear as well, any habits you practice you think might harm him, now's the time to change that. Not saying there are any, but your power as a role model is unparalleled, so... :-)

Dot.... what a fantastic story! (And how rare to have a spontaneous utterance of joy towards a parent from a teen-ish person! ;-0)

That says a lot about you. Happy birthday... I'm glad it's been a wonderful one so far.

Aww, I remember feeling like that.

Now I'm old enough to realise I only want to turn out MOSTLY like my dad. Just 'cos you have to discover some day that your father isn't Superman, the important stuff doesn't go away.

Don't worry Mr. Dad, when he grows up, he will be wearing his own armour and will understand the chinks. :)
You know what they say: when you pick a fight, expect to get dirty.
