Yesterday was my first Father’s Day. Yes, our boy may still be in utero, but he still managed to get me a nice card. Here’s hoping his thoughtfulness continues into life outside the womb!

My own father was home alone yesterday, since mom has flown back to Ontario to visit with her own father for a couple of weeks, but he drove down to Redmond from BC so we could go to church and out for a nice lunch together. I got a full rack of ribs, and he got the Prime Rib. Let no one ever claim we Routly men don’t like our meat in copious amounts.

And yes, as you may have heard, it’s true that more collect calls are made on Father’s Day than any other day of the year. Mother’s Day is the biggest holiday for phone calls, but I guess kids are more willing to pony up the money for the call if it’s for mom!

Vote for Life of Ronnie!
