Fathers Day.

Goldfinch60



 

Father’s Day was here once more

And every year she takes me out,

My daughter takes me out,

Take me out for a meal.

It may not be on Father’s Day,

It could be any day,

Any day of the year

But it was always to celebrate,

Celebrate that day.

 

Well it happened yesterday,

She took me to our favourite place,

A wonderful restaurant

Where I had a superb meal.

We had a great chat

Full of humour, laughter and love,

A wonderful time for us both.

Yes, SHE took ME out for dinner,

And of course, I paid!

    Your daughter knows what side your wallet's buttered. On the plus side, you enjoyed the meal and the company, tipping the waitress, the barman. Does she have a birthday coming up.

    • Goldfinch60

      She certainly does Paul.

      Her birthday is in January so I have a chance to save some pennies.

        • Goldfinch60

          She does have a way with money, her and money are easily parted.

          My dad would always pay except for when my sister and I would tell him, "No dad, this time we pay". He always had a tough time letting us pay for him, but towards the end he was giving in. Happy Father's Day Andy. 😁

            It was the same with my dad and that has been passed down to me, it seems to be the way of the world in which we live AP.

              Nothing wrong with letting the kids pay for their dad. Look at it as acknowledgement that you did a great job raising them and that they love you so much. 💖

              Before you know it it'll be father's day 2023 and you can pay again.

              • Goldfinch60

                So very true John.
