Ain't No Father's Day!! (Just Kidding🤣)

 

Fathers are critical for the family!  They are the head of the households.  Yet every year on the 3^rd Sunday in June they are always disrespected lol.  I too used to be a part of the disrespect (Sorry Pops).  Especially being a mama’s boy, I always made sure Mother’s Day was perfect; however, for Father’s Day it was always an afterthought. Why is it this way?  Why do we do so little for the males in our lives? I think it is because as men we are expected to just go with the flow. Young Trellie knew that Pops would always be appreciative of anything I got him.  My Pops is an old school country man, and it did not take much to make him happy. Therefore, I could get away with the bare minimum.  However, the older I got the more I realized I had to step it up for Father’s Day lol.  No longer do I wait to the last minute lol.  Nowadays, the siblings and I prep by asking Big Red (moms) ahead of time what he need/wants. Being a grown up, you really learn how lopsided the advertising is for Mother’s Day vs. Father’s Day lol.  It really sucks for the fathers I can tell you that 😀! So, do the right thing by the man and make his day special too.  The father in your life does not have to be the man that helped create you; it can be any male figure in your life that was significant in your upbringing!  I know that everyone was not as fortunate as I was to have a father figure in the house; however, everyone did have a father figure they could go to. Throw away the socks, ties, and whatever else common gift we get dads and get something more meaningful lol.  I hate it here, but I love my Pops!  

Happy Father’s Day to all the hardworking men!
