WHEN GOD
MADE FATHERS
When the good Lord was
creating Fathers, he started with a tall frame. A female angel nearby said
"What kind of a Father is that? If you're going to make children so close
to the ground, why have you put the Father up so high? He won't be able to
shoot marbles without kneeling, tuck a child in bed without bending, or even
kiss a child without stooping"
God smiled and said, "Yes, but if I make him child size, who would
children have to look up to?"
And when God made a Father's hands, they were large. The angel shook her head
and said, "Large hands can't manage diaper pins, small buttons, rubber
bands on pony tails, or even remove splinters caused from baseball bats."
Again God smiled and said, "I know, but they're large enough to hold
everything a small boy empties from his pockets, yet small enough to cup a
child's face in them."
Then God molded long slim legs and broad shoulders, "Do you realize you
just made a Father without a lap?" The angel chuckled.
God said, "A Mother needs a lap. A Father needs strong shoulders to pull a
sled, to balance a boy on a bicycle, or to hold a sleepy head on the way home
from the circus."
When God was in the middle of creating the biggest feet any one had ever seen,
the angel could not contain herself any longer. "That's not fair. Do you
honestly think those boats are going to get out of bed early in the morning
when the baby cries, or walk through a birthday party without crushing one or
two of the guests?"
God again smiled and said, "They will work. You will see. They will
support a small child who wants to ride to Branbury Cross or scare mice away
from a summer cabin , or display shoes that will be a challenge to fill."
God worked throughout the night, giving the Father few words, but a firm
authoritative voice; eyes that see everything, but remain calm and tolerant.
Finally, almost as an after thought, He added tears. Then he turned to the
angel and said, "Now are you satisfied he can love as much as a Mother
can?"
The angel said nothing more.
