Father's Day photo with three of my kids

This is the second Father’s Day in a row that I have used a tripod to take some photos of me with the kids. And just look at the respect I’m getting from my children.

    I’d just be thrilled that they sat still long enough for the shutter to snap! I gave up on repsect a LONG time ago.

      I know what you mean about getting the kids to sit for a photo. I actually have four kids, but the toddler wasn’t in the mood for a photo shoot. Even on Father’s Day.

    Wait are you saying rabbit ears aren’t a sign of respect? Man my wife has been snowing me all this time!

    • Ken

      The kids sticking their tongues at you also isn’t a sign of respect. Just in case your wife have messing with you on that too.

      Thanks, I did! Except for the part when the kids woke me up early for breakfast in bed. I wanted to sleep in. I was still tired from Saturday’s activities.

    Man, those kids have some badass personalities! You have raised them right!
    PS, happy father’s day:)

    • Ken

      Yep, it’s all me. My wife just sits around watching soap operas and eating bon-bon’s. I have to do everything.

    Quit complaining, Ken. You get to eat seafood free for a year. At least you get respect from a restaurant. ;)

    • Ken

      Too bad they don’t have a playroom where the kids can hang out while the grown-ups eat!
