May has extremely long days where he doesn't get home until 9 or 10 pm most nights. The whole family knows this and accepts it for what it is.
I thought the kids knew that it is nigh impossible for Dad to get a day off this month.
This week he has not one, but two road trips to take with the kids. On Thursday he has to pick up Squirrel at college and move her home. Friday finds him on the road to Hershey Park to chaperone a bunch of giggling 13 year old girls. [Reason #426 why I am happy I can't drive.]
Such a good Daddy.
Then, nearer to the end of the month, he is off [returning to Pennsylvania] to move Squirrel [yet again] into an apartment for her summer internship.
For all the road trips he has, he also has to make a little bit of time for our Anniversary and Mother's Day, both of which occur this coming weekend.
I think I should change his moniker from Pooldad to Superman.
Love ya' honey! See you in June. :)

I've said it before, and I'll say it again Skippy - "YOU'VE GOT A GOOD ONE THERE!!" It's lovely that you have such a strong family unit, and I'll drink to that! Cheers!
superman indeed!
Wow, superman it is huh? You are lucky to have such a sweet, capable, trustworthy, honest, loyal driver of kids....that sorta sounded like a boy scout there for a minute huh?
Happy Anniversary to the sweetest couple. You are both lucky to have each other.

I feel for him. It's tough when the work is seasonal. My guys have been giving estimates for over a month and next week starts the 12 hour minimum days for the next 5 - 6 months. They do get Sundays off and Saturdays mostly although they might put a few hours in. I don't envy them. And yeah - I get a birthday and mother's day in there too but never obligate them to do much beyond saying the words.
cheers for pooldad!
god bless him!
form now on we will call him
soooperdoooperpoolerdooperdad!
or something like that...
I think he needs to wear a t-shirt with THEE mighty "S" on the front. Don't you? What a good guy and a good dad. He's a keeper!
My husband saved us 150 bucks by installing a dishwasher - I think we are both lucky in the hubs department!
Wouldn't want his schedule this month. Good luck to Superman.
What an awesome hubby you have, Skippy! Superman indeed! :D
Glad you have a great guy there.
What a great father he is some wouldn't want to be bothered, he is more like superdad then pooldad isn't he.
What day in May is your anniversary?
May is a quite month for us only Mother's Day and my nans birthday at the end of the month.
a definite superman and he totally has my respect for being in the pool business because right now i'm seriously hating mine.
