What every dad wants for Father’s Day

That title was just a little bit of link bait, please excuse us for that.  Mom, dad and parent bloggers know that around our respective days we receive oodles of press releases about the perfect thing for “Father’s Day!”   If I were to take those releases at face value I’d tell you that I need some fancy fruit, expensive shot glasses, BBQ sauce and a pair of running shoes to make my Father’s Day complete.
