3 daughters myself. I did as best I could. Mine range from 21 to 30.
They love me, I love them. Lotsa memories. I still have to break up a fight now and again!
Hell, I am just hoping for a good son-in-law!

Excellent job, be careful what you wish for. My uncle wished for boys and had two full generations of girls!

Ha! Yup. I'm just starting into it Tom. 5 and 3 are mine, so you know exactly what awaits me. My Grandfather had 3 girls, my Mom being the oldest. Mom always tells me daughters love there daddies, and spoil them forever. He died 20 years ago and the 3 of them still ball every time they talk about him.

My biggest fear at the moment is them seeing me naked and remembering it the rest of their lives.

Ya, just be certain to have at least some whity-tighties on as you go to make coffee.
Oh shit! Slumber-party! A chorus of 'EWWWWWWW's'!
Father-daughter this and that.
I did it all. Coaching teams? Don't get me started!

Hopefully they will have more to remember than that!

Somewhere between 25 and 30 you will hear that! Girls trend to be a little earlier than boys.....

Those are amazing! Excellent work and true craftsmanship HARRYWALLY!

Thanks Harrywally. I think I'll give it a go to make a brush. Been turning pens for 2 decades now - time to branch out. Got a piece of elk antler that won't quite work for a new walking stick, so maybe it has a brush hidden inside it....

Wow these brushes are nice looking. I really like the tagua nut one, you sir are an inspiration for my turning projects

Those were very commendable actions for the both of you, it's admirable. Beautiful results, I'm sure Geezer will be pleased!
