It's DAD's Day




It takes someone special 
to be a daddy.

To my dearly departed father
To my husband, brother,
cousins, blog buddies, 
and all those other guys
who step up to the plate
and help raise the 
next generation..

HAPPY FATHERS DAY

Enjoy your weekend.
Enjoy your special day.

YOU DESERVE IT.

Nice tribute!

I'm mostly known as 'MA' said...

II think you said it all when saying to those that step up to the plate. Not all of them do so we really need to appreciate those that do. The are unsung heroes of our lives.

What a sweet image, the boy and his hen!
I'm surprised your husband wasn't traumatized, witnessing the chickens' slaughter at such a young age. (I'd have probably grown up to be a vegetarian. LOL)
I've seen those chicken feet here, but just figured that was a Southern delicacy (not!). There's NO WAY I could/would eat that.

PS - Not sure why, but this (post) just showed up in my reader a little while ago.

OOPS -- wrong post on which to comment.
I'm going to copy and paste and you can just delete this. Sorry! 🙃

My Dad, who left Earth over 60 years ago, taught me how to feather chickens after beheading, was a very kind man who treated us, all in the family, with support, devotion and affection. He still visits my dreams (even though I'm way older than he got to be) as a reassuring presence. It was a different time, and rural dads did things as humanely as they could. Even so, chicken feet were reserved for the pigs.
