Anno...you're sweet and thank you so much for caring...it means so much to me.
i tried that last year...I sent an email the evening of Father's Day when he had not heard from any of his children. I thought I'd give them a 'gentle' reminder what day it was. G responded immediately...D sent an e-card but did not call him even though she was home. LW fluffed me off completely and now this year comes around and thankfully G came through on his own but D and LW remained silent.
I can't call because I promised Larry I wouldn't ask them to call him. However, I do plan on asking them if their cell phones were broken Father's day. I'm sure we'll hear all kinds of 'excuses'...none, however, which will be legitimate unless they were near death. I'm having trouble understanding this...it's so coldhearted to me towards someone who is such a good, good man.
