And so on Saturday it is my eldest daughter's 21st birthday party and I find myself wondering where the hell the years have gone, and who is this grown woman that calls me Dad?

I am way to young and irresponsible to have a child this age, and I am often challenged by what sort of role model I am to her. I have tried to enchourage her to be open minded, inquisitive, self sufficent and respectful. I have taught her to speak her mind, but be mindful of who she is speaking to, but also made her aware of the fact she has two ears and one mouth for a reason, and that is to listen twice as much as she talks.

She is a good kid, has the usual issues that young adults her age have, and I hope we have done a good job with her, and suspect we have.

Those of you on Facebook, look out for the pics, it's going to be one hell of an evening, and as for Dad's speach, well the less said about that, the better!! smile

Be safe all.

Im sure that you have raised a a wonderful young lady there.And with your wisdom to guide her along when she may,have doubts?

I am sure she will be that much more of a respectful woman as she grows older as well.

Well Done my friend and a very happy birthday to her as well.

Cheers
