3. Will you see your dad tomorrow? No, he is in Illinois and I am in Pennsylvania.
4. Do you give him gifts on Father’s Day? Yes, but they are always late. Seriously, I have a card and a explosion album with pictures of the Little Guy sitting on the kitchen table to be mailed out.

8. Are you close to your father? We don’t have any hard feelings between us, but I wouldn’t say we are terribly close.
9. How long since you have spoke to him? The last time was in early April, when my grandmother was in the hospital for a few days. I do plan to call him tomorrow though.

We can’t always be close to our relatives. After all, we don’t pick them. Your answers were honest and that’s a great thing. Have a good weekend…

It’s funny how we look back and analyze how our parents were with our siblings in comparison to us. Great post!

My gifts and cards are often late, too. But, I figure, at least I send them! Most of my family doesn’t any more.
I enjoyed reading your answers. Thanks for visiting!
