I thought this quote was cute and fairly accurate when explaining the feelings of children towards their fathers from adolescence to adulthood.
When I was a boy of fourteen, my father was so ignorant I could hardly stand to have the old man around. But when I got to be twenty-one, I was astonished at how much he had learned in seven years.

Happy Father's Day Jerry, Don, Clancy, Papa, and all fathers who read this blog.
The Vegas Sewells love you!

You are all wonderful fathers and grandfathers. Nathan and Noelle are lucky to have such great guys to love and guide them.
