With today being Father's Day, it makes me think of all the things my son's dad isn't around to teach him (having died five years ago when Danny was nine).
Today, I decided to take on one of those "dad things." (I thought about teaching Danny to shave, but he's already figured that one out on his own - and may soon need to teach me, as I'm not that many years away from chin hairs.)
Anyway, I taught him to tie a tie.
In order to do so, I had to learn it myself - which I did by googling the instructions shown above.
I figure it'll come in handy for him at some point... and for me as well if the Annie Hall look ever comes back in vogue.
