The Departure & Return of a Father’s Image

The Departure & Return of a Father’s Image

4  YEARS    My Daddy can do anything!  

7  YEARS    My Dad knows a lots a whole lot.  

8  YEARS    My father does not know quite everything. 

12 YEARS    Naturally, Father does not know that either. 

14 YEARS    Oh, Father? He is hopelessly old-fashioned

21 YEARS    That man… he is out of date! 

25 YEARS    He knows a little bit about, but not much. 

30 YEARS    I must find out what Dad thinks about it. 

35 YEARS    Before we decide, we’ll get Dad’s idea first. 

50 YEARS    What would Dad have thought about that? 

60 YEARS    My Dad knows literally everything 

65 YEARS    I wish I could talk it over with Dad once more.
