I bought a cup with that phrase on it among the gifts I presented to my husband when I found out I was having a baby...that was over 30 years ago.❤...This is a perfect example of the Men that phrase was made for. Thanks for reminding me. He still drinks from that cup!🤗

Worst mistake to tell a boy as a father is "men dont cry" because that's a lie. Crying purifies and releases stress. I rather cry alone than holding in anger and talk to God.
