Mine was mostly pretty low-key, which is how I like it. I got some small gifts from my wife and daughter, including a 7oz hammer with a colorfully painted handle. I actually really liked that. For dinner my mother-in-law took us out to an expensive steakhouse, where I had a wonderful ribeye, but I don’t think it was worth the price. I’m grateful and appreciative, but I think it was a little too much. I think that she and/or my father-in-law had a gift card, so it made sense for them. Besides all that, I somehow hardly had to put up with any complaints, even from my ever opinionated four-year-old.

I would have enjoyed the day a lot more if I didn’t have to worry about work today.

    Mine was rainy and gloomy. Our daycare lady has COVID, but my wife and I can’t afford to miss work this week, so we unfortunately spent most of Father’s Day driving my daughter two hours to stay with her grandparents. Not the greatest Father’s Day for me, but no doubt a fantastic one for the grandfather.

    She’s been helping him paint the living room. Pretty good for a three-year-old.
