Little Billy wanted so much to make his dads fathers day special so after school he went door to door asking neighbors if he could mow there lawns to save enough money to buy his dad a fishing rod. Well every door he went to he got the same response "we already have a boy that cuts our grass".
His mom wanted to give him the money but he said "No mom I want to do this on my own".
So one day when Billy was walking through the garage he spotted a chunk of 4x4 and suddenly it came to him, I can carve Dad a duck.
So everyday for two weeks Billy carved and carved getting splinters and cutting himself twice.
So the Day before Fathers day he showed the duck to his Mom. "Billy, you did that all by yourself"?
Billy proudly said "Yes Mom,".
"Well Billy would you like me to wrap it for you?"
"No Mom I want to wrap it myself."
So Fathers Day morning Billy carries his wrapped duck to the kitchen where his dad is drinking coffee.
Kind of shyly Billy says, "Happy Fathers day Dad", as he hands him the gift.
"Oh what have we here Billy"?
"Open it dad."
As his Dad was tearing away the wrapping paper seeing the carved duck Billy said "Sorry Dad I couldn't buy you a real gift"
At which point dad said, "That's OK Billy I'm not your real Dad."
