When God Created Fathers When the good Lord was creating fathers, He started with a tall frame. He won t be able to shoot marbles without kneeling, tuck a child in bed without bending, or even kiss a child without a lot of stooping. And when God made a father s hands, they were large and sinewy.
Large hands are clumsy.
They can t manage diaper pins, small buttons, rubber bands on pony tails or even remove splinters caused by baseball bats. Then God molded long, slim legs and broad shoulders. The angel nearly had a heart attack. A father needs strong shoulders to pull a sled, balance a boy on a bicycle or hold a sleepy head on the way home from the circus. God was in the middle of creating two of the largest feet anyone had ever seen when the angel could contain herself no longer.
