FATHER’S DAY

First, I would like to say a happy father’s day to all the fathers out there who deserve it. A special shout out to my Papa John, no one like you!

And to all that their fathers are late (no milder way to put it), you are not without a father; you have the Father of all fathers with, behind, around, in front and on top of your matter! So no sad faces today, please! Thank you!

And y’all that have some sort of grievance with the men who sired you, today might just be the day to bridge that gap, ‘fore they’re gone for good! Your heavenly Father forgives all the time, why can’t you (considering you’ll become a parent too, some day).

Now to all the mothers like fathers, the widows who have stood strong, who have metamorphosed into being mothers, sisters, nurses, friends AND fathers all at once; the single mothers who try their hardest not to be ‘inadequate’ - more power to your elbows!

So I saw something today! I know how hard it can be to a parent, especially when you have to dress all the kids for Sunday service, but please can we pay special attention to our girls; a 5 year old girl was sitting on a pavement somewhere and it was obvious she was not comfortable. It did not take long for me to figure out why, her butt crack and pink panty was out in the open, I looked at the jean, there was no belt on it… lil wonder!

Now what really bugged me was the about-10 year old boy that was staring hard at her! I felt like smacking the back of his head! Na so these things dey start o, small time we go hear story of how one small boy cornered one smaller girl.

Without wanting to spoil the mood of the day, please mothers put a belt on ‘em jeans and protect your daughters' butt cracks; fathers, teach your boys it’s rude to stare! Smack ‘em if that’s what will get the message across!

Happy Sunday and happy Fathers’ day once again!
