#HappyFathersDayDennisSiemko2025
It’s been a while since I wrote about my hubby for Father’s day, and today I’m writing about all the things he did with his sons, Jonathan and Addison.
It began over forty years ago and continues until today. The first memories my children have of their Dad are going to Denniger’s and being given a taste of their veal bologna while shopping for the house. I was at work while they made this weekly jaunt and would regale me with their visits. Another good memory that I have is them playing with their Dad outside, baseball, touch football and red rover coming over. When they were 7 and 5 respectively they were enrolled in Kinsmen baseball and their dad was the coach for both of their respective teams, so four nights a week, off we would go to the park and on the weekends would practice.
As these two, full of energy children grew up, their Dad drove them to all of their events, including singing lessons and Sears drama for the youngest Addison.
The Boys’ Day out was usually going to a movie and lunch at McDonald’s while I was waiting to see what they saw and heard all about the movie. In the car on trips we always played music, especially Billy Joel and Harry Chapin, to which the boys memorized all of the lyrics and I can still hear them singing as they returned home. This treat gave me a break and Dennis an entire day to enjoy his children.
After they each graduated from highschool my hubby, took great pleasure in driving back and forth to each of his childrens universities to ensure they had all of their requirements for living and succeeding in today’s environment.
Now they still go to the movies and Boys Day Out, and on special days, Addison goes with his Dad golfing for the day and a meal. I’m fortunate to have such great sons and look forward to when they get together with us. Happy Father’s Day to the Man in our lives.
