St. VD in Real Life and Via Film
When Valentine's Day — a holiday honoring a single man who thought soldiers should marry, along with other stories — is a dad's day it is almost always indirectly.
But there are exceptions Just ask Russell Enste, who will formally adopt his daughter today in Union County, N.C. The 43-year-old cried when the 21-year-old daughter of the woman he was dating asked him to be her father.
Except for Mr. Enste, most other dads should hope to receive happiness from the smiles of significant others — Thing 1 has new perfume and Thing 2 a heart-themed wrist bangle — and be prepared to sit quietly and appreciatively and without rustling through a date movie along the lines of "Definitely Maybe," a made-for-tv movie filling big screens for a couple weeks about a single dad and the precocious daughter of his divorce who wants to find out about herself by making him find true love.
Or you can always pretend this is a day about atrocities and see how much love that gets you.
