It all started with our traditional present giving in bed before I'd even gotten up (actually I was pretty close to still being asleep). Luca was super excited about the day this year and started very early. He got to buy me a present of his choice at his school (a red lunch cooler with "Super Dad" written in yellow on the side), and he made chocolate rocky road which he said was a present that I could share with him. Kelly always gives the best fathers day presents because they usually involve something I can share with Luca and Scout, this year we all got "pantone" expresso coffee cups in different colours ("blue" for me, "red" for Luca and "pink" for Scout).
After we tried out the new cups with coffee and baby cino's I headed off to swimming with my dad. After the races we had a beer and then met my mum, Kelly and the kids at the local hamburger place "Curly's on the corner" - the only decent burgers around these parts.
Luca was also looking forward to leading my dad and I on a walk through the "jungle" around the headland from North Curl Curl beach to Dee Why beach. Luca and I did the same walk about six months earlier and it was cool to see how much he had grown, the last time I had to lift him up the improvised rock stairs at least twenty times, this time he did it all by himself.

An awesome day that should happen at least half a dozen times a year! (Although there are probably some in our house who would argue that it already does).
