My children adore me. This is evidenced by the mounds of candy they gave me on Sunday for Father's Day. I think the source of their love and adoration of me is this:After returning from the Priesthood session of General Conference in April, I told my children that President Hinckley had revealed the 14th Article of Faith which states "Fathers are always right."
At first they did not believe me, but at my insistence and with President Hinckley's words to back me up they eventually came to realize.
I am constantly giving my kids reasons to appreciate me: I help them come up with good names for their stuffed animals like "Xena, Warrior Princess - Temptress of the Nile"; I invite them to accompany me to the top of the nearby mountain to slay the dragon and make dragon steaks whenever we are faced with the decision of finding something to do; I make pancakes for them on Sunday mornings.
