Last night I received an email from a good friend of mine who teaches third grade in California.
It seems they spent the day working on Father's Day cards. The slam dunk? Read on...
Dear Dad,
I had a lot of fun with you like when you farted on the fire. It was fun, I really enjoyed it.
Love,
Ryan
It's funny EACH time I read it. (I am wiping my eyes right now.)
First again?! Wow, if it hadn't been for my husband's 5 am alarm I'd have missed this moment. Now I don't have to kill him for not getting up until 6.
ReplyDeleteFive days! Woot!
That card kills. I wish I could see the dad's face when he opens it.
Haha! Oh thats hilarious. Obviously a lasting memory.
ReplyDeleteTent $135, Cooler full of soda $35, watchning dad light his asshair on fire, priceless.
ReplyDeleteWow. There's not a mom on the planet who could (or would want to) compete with that.
ReplyDeleteThat's hilarious!
note to self...next time we are camping...
ReplyDeleteBeen there, done that. It's important to pass these things on to our children :)
ReplyDeleteBut, as a firefighter I would be remiss if I failed to offer this important safety tip: Farts do contain small amounts of methane and hydrogen, so it is possible to seriously injure yourself this way. Keep a fire extinguisher nearby, and if your butt catches on fire or explodes...STOP, DROP, and ROLL.
Hee hee hee. It's funnier each time I read it too!
ReplyDeleteDads are gifted with that "special" talent. :/
ReplyDeletemuch safer to just have someone hold a lighter near your ass when the time comes...can you say, "blowtorch?"
ReplyDeleteHere! Pull my finger!
ReplyDeleteThe subtle sign off of "I really enjoyed it" particularly cracks me up.
ReplyDeleteI bet the child was up-wind.
ReplyDeleteIt is the little things that kids remember!!
ReplyDeleteDad must belong to the 'blue flame' club??? no??

*I smell hair burning*
Oh WOW!! That is PRICELESS! The things mothers get in their cards are so sweet...Dads...they get the farting memories.
ReplyDeleteOutstanding card!
ReplyDeleteThose are the moments that we remember...I know I would!
ReplyDeleteclassic!!! That is so funny!
ReplyDeleteI realized I hadn't visited in awhile. :) Missed reading here!
hahhahahahahhaha priceless.
ReplyDeleteHowled with laughter. I am going to send this in an email to my dad. :)
ReplyDeleteJust wait til he gets to the part where dad teaches him how to smash beer cans against his head. Male bonding. Oy.
ReplyDeleteMwah!
That's a keeper.
ReplyDeleteAww that's so perfect!
ReplyDeleteOh my! How funny!!! Hope you're enjoying your summer.
ReplyDeleteI left you something on my blog. :)
That is something my son would say about his dad.
ReplyDeleteI had a guy friend in college that used to do that every time we went camping.
ReplyDelete... I wonder if he has a son now???
Okay, well I guess it's safe to tell you then. When we went camping last week, Kendall almost immediately asked, "Can we light farts tonight?!"
