so I was working at my granddaughter's Elementary school, "supervising" lunch in the cafeteria & when she, sitting at table w. her 3rd grade pals, excitedly called "Papa, come over and sit with me".... So, I did. We discussed the lunch chatted for a few minutes and then she says..."you can go now" and turns to her friends as if I turned, at that moment, invisible. Get used to it.

great read for Father's Day. as my boys reach 25 and 17 (with an absolutely fabulous daughter in-between), I can really identify with your thoughts and feelings. the evolution of parenthood is harrowing and rewarding. hang in there!

Re: William at camp….probably the most true to life outline of dad fail i have ever read. Bravo (i think)…PS: he will start to really appreciate you and his mom at age 26. Just hang on - trust me.
