Today was a pretty nice day. I took the kids to church this morning then to McDonald's for lunch. After we went home and did a little house cleaning, but I really didn't want to make a day of work. It's hard being a single dad, going to school, working from home and raising three kids. But I give it my best. Tonight I made a turkey dinner, with baked potatoes corn and bread. Topped it off with a cup of Chai tea and we had a nice dinner. Let me tell you dinner was easy, Foster Farms makes a great Herb Seasoned Turkey Breast Roast that comes in an oven bag with a pop up timer. Take it out of the box and put it right in the oven for two hours. Potatoes are a piece of cake, wash them poke them with a fork and bake them after the turkey has been in the oven for two hours. Corn you can microwave but I prefer to cook it on the stovetop. Add a little butter and pepper for taste, buy premade bread and you have a nice family dinner with almost no work. A single Dad (or mom) can do this easily.
Dinner we sat in the living room watching the first season of friends the t.v. show. I love the show, my kids tell me that I remind them of Ross. I like all three of the guys on the show so any of them are ok with me ;-).
After dinner we just relaxed and laughed together as a family. Just enjoying each other's company. I love my kids and feel very blessed to have them in my life. So glad I am a Dad.
In a world where it is continuing to get harder and harder to just get by, I am challenging people to step up and make a decision to change the world. Help those around you, find a need and fill it. Give people and hand up, not a hand out.
