In a matter of days my first born is getting married. Whoooooaa, who hit the fast forward button of life?

SHE, Abby, is a wonderful young woman. Together, they are a team, with many mutual interests. So, what's the hang-up Hogan? The tux is pressed and ready, the shoes are spit shined, and I even have my little "speech & toast" ready for the traditional rehearsal dinner!

We've hit these speed-bumps in life before without running off the road; 20, 30, 40, divorce, kids in College, re-marriage, newborn, heart surgery, 50......and now its post parenthood time.

One has to wonder at this phase in the game of LIFE, did we do our job in preparing him to have and to hold from this day forward?

No, it's not just another day. It is their special day and one that our large blended families will cherish.

Dad's, if you have experience that will help me out this week, drop a comment!
