Doubting Dad

Today Robin and I walked our 6 miles like to dedicated (most of the time) individuals that we are. We were able to walk outside again due to the absolute gorgeous weather we were blessed with for a second day in a row.

Riding home with my sense of accomplishment, I thought little more about our walk. That is, until I received a text from Robin.  In a nutshell, Robin asked me to quote how many miles we had walked over the weekend, as her dad did not believe that she was walking regularly.

Now, please let me explain that, from all accounts, Robin's dad has a strong sense of humor. His humor often takes on the form of antagonistic teasing. So, I'm going to assume that this was the reason for "proof of walk" from me.

I would like to also, at this time, extend an invitation to Robin's dad to join us next weekend in our walks. I'd be willing to bet that he wouldn't request proof a second time!


Fathers should be neither seen nor heard. That is the only proper basis for family life.
