So, as most of you know, Father's Day is coming up. It's a holiday I haven't celebrated full on since the year I graduated high school. Things got weird with my, i guess you can call him, step dad the year after that.
My church is having a father-daughter dance this year, and honestly, inviting him made me feel really stupid. I'm just glad he gracefully declined.. even if he did give me a stupid look when I did ask. I made a joke saying, "I'll just dress Noah up to make him look like a daughter for you." It took less awkwardness out of the whole thing, but deep down it kind of sucked. I mean.. I never once had a real date to a dance, and being turned down by someone you USED to call "daddy" only made me feel more stupid as a human. My real dad, yeah, long story short.. he basically doesn't even know I exist.
Ugh. I just wan to know if there is a such thing as a good man out there, and if there are any.. why can't a normal good one find me? blehhhhhhhhhhhhh.
I guess what I'm trying to say is, for those of you that do have dads.. please recognize them on father's day. Let them know how much you love them, and let them know that no matter what, you'll always be their baby girl/boy. Treat them to a special dinner or go play sports with them. Whatever. Just honor them! Rock relationship or not, let them know you care!
And if you're wondering, yes, I'll go to the dance, and I'll dance with Noah, because I play the role of mommy AND daddy here! [:
What are your special plans for Father's Day?
