Don't feel bad...I doubt my father would know my middle name (he might - I know he doesn't remember his only grandchilds) and he has FOREVER forgot, messed up or otherwise has no clue when my birthday is. (I am waiting to see if I get a card this year...it's tomorrow.)

One year, he didn't do anything for it...I was about 15...no biggie as it wasn't the first time. On September 3rd he hands me a small box with sapphire stud earrings and wishes me Happy Birthday. I said, "Thanks, but my birthday was last month, Dad."

He didnt' believe me!! He went and asked Mom! Hello! I know my own birthday!

BB don't feel bad, with 16 brothers and sisters, he must have stopped trying to remember a long time ago.

I know it hurts, but at least they are still here. My Mom died when I was 7 and Dad at 29. I've been an orphan a long time. The thing I learned especially, after my dad died was, unfortunately( or fortunately) he was only human. Not super Dad as I thought.

I have 2 sisters, one I haven't seen or spoken to in over 6 years. The other we email and that works for her. Go Figure! BTW we live less then 30 minutes apart! Families, sometime you just can't understand them!

Also, Judy and I must be the only ones who don't know your middle name.

That's a good point.

The reason for his call was that his brother's wife is putting together a family tree. It's no small undertaking as my dad is the oldest of 16 children.

The question that really put me over the edge was he asked for my daughter's middle name (Josephine) which was also his mom's name (and my daughter's namesake). I picked 'cause grandma died when I was pregnant with her.

He just said, "Oh really?"

I'll share my Dad with you anytime Mal. He will remember something from 20 years ago,but not the conversation from yesterday.
We all love you.

How about when your Dad calls and says sorry I ment to call the other son and quickly hangs up.

Nahhh. How about when your Dad calls and says, "Sorry I meant to call the other son," and quickly hangs up AND you are an only child.

I'm sure my dad doesn't know my middle name either - too bad 'cuz it's his last name (I made my 2nd maiden name (his last name) my middle name when I got married).

sorry Mal

My daughter is up in on Lake Erie right now with her grandmother (my mom) she's only been there since last Friday and she's already done dinner at Kelley's and South Bass (Mom's neighbors all have boats and have Mom tag along), had an evening at Cedar Point.....and who knows what all else!

However, Ron is offering me a weekend at Topsail this week...so I can't complain!

BOAT DRINKS!
