INTO THE DAY

FATHER'S DAY VS. MOTHER'S DAY
One little boy's definition of Father's Day went like this: "Well, it's just like Mother's Day, only you don't spend so much."
Well, we fathers can concede that. Someone said, "A father is someone who carries pictures where his money used to be." And the phone
