Camping and "aleeping out"— with a long extenalon cord for the electric blanket—are favorite activities for the pair. Dave Cary doesn't worry about being both a father and mother to his son Kevin. 84. " I think of being a good p a re n t/' Dave said. Kevin has lived with his father since he was 3 years old His parents are divorced. At first the boy went to Shalom Day Nursery. “ N aturally he cried at first. It tears you up inside,'* Dave recalled “ But he got adjusted and learned I wasn’t leaving him forever, but just for a day It was such good care I had the freedom not even to think about it." When Dave was operations officer for F irst State Bank, Gresham, he had regular hours When he switched to selling real estate his hours were irregular at best "T here was a fam ily across the street that would take Kevin when I had to work It was the closest thing to a mother he had. He was loved there as part of the fam ily—something you don't get from a teenage babysitter." The father now has something else to nurture He and his brother Richard Cary, opened the Peetsa Peddler restaurant in Gresham in April. “ Kevin comes down here occasionally to spend time with m e," Dave said as his son went to pour some soft drinks. “ The last tim e was almost too much for him —I found him napping among the flour sacks." Kevin stood at his dad's elbow as each made his favorite pizza The son believes about the only pizza worth its sauce is pepperoni while the father put together a Canadian bacon and pineapple one for himself. When Dave was in personnel at the bank, he worked with several divorced mothers who had to miss work because their children were sick “ 1 probably had more empathy for them than many men would,” Dave said. "Being an unwed father (he smiled at his choice of terminology) with no wife at home to take care of Kevin, I was the one tostay home from w ork." Like many conscientious parents, Dave is quick to give a lot of credit to his child. "H e's been extrem ely easy to care for—a flexible and happy child,” Dave said The nuclear fam ily (mom, dad and kids) looms in everybody’s mind, though. “ I f I could choose, I ’d choose to be happily m a rrie d ." Dave said, turning serious "B u t I don’t have that choiceand I think w e're happy—just the two of us." The father and son do many things together They went backpacking in the Wallowas in August Kevin gets his dad to sleep outside once a week in the summertime. They sometimes even camp out in the w inter. “ We have an electric blanket with a long cord," Dave laughed. But time is short without another adult to share with chores “ When I get home I might have to make dinner, mow the lawn, m ilk the cows, feed the chickens and rabbits.” The chickens made their way to the stew pot last week. "When you've got 15 chickens and you’re getting three eggs a day, it's tim e to review ,” Dave, the form er banker coming to the fore, said T hey're not m ilking cows either “ We still have the twins that were T illie the cow’s last great effort,” Dave said. Did Kevin watch them be born? “ No, but I saw them when they were just out and all wet,” Kevin remembered. “ That's the way I first saw you too,” the father told his son. Some fathers are leery of the squirming newborns. Not Dave. “ I love babies," he said. “ M y wife changed the first diaper, but I took over from there. I wished I could have had more than one child." He paused. "K evvy is always saying he'd like to get a mother who already has a baby inside her," Dave said. “ He'd like a brother or sister " Some of the nitty-gritty problems of being a single parent have smoothed out for the father and son since Dave's parents “ tem porarily" moved into the Carys' rural Sandy home three months ago. 'W e're saying it's tem porary,” Dave explained. “ I t ’s until they can't stand us or we can't stand them ." Dave admitted, that like his father, he’s a " w o r k a h o lic ." H e 's m uch m ore demonstrative than his father, however. “ I can rem em ber when I was about Kevvy's age, and my dad said “ Boys don’t kiss ' That put some distance between me and him —I think a father does kiss his son. Kevin and I have an affectionate relationship” Kevin thinks his dad is pretty special •‘Some neighbors used to teare Kevin that me-n-my-dad was one word with h im ,” Dave said. And Dave Cary wouldn’t have it any other way. “ Children are like m irrors. You give them love—and they reflect it right back to you.
