Father’s Day is perhaps the one day everyone pays dad any attention. All the other days, he is always just there. Being a dad myself now, I realize how special Dad really is. I mean there are so many things:
- Day in and day out, having to go to work when everyone else was sleeping.
- Working long hours because the household needs more money to come in to ensure everyone is well taken care of.
- After a long day full of stress, trying to spend time with everyone before he fell asleep from exhaustion.
- Making us all laugh with his silly dancing! Sheesh! This is still embarrassing.
- All of the other miscellaneous things dads do (ex. – yard work, teaching about life, etc.).
But more importantly, just being dad. I sure hope my small ones will appreciate me as much as I appreciate my dad. I hope I can come close to providing my children with what my Dad provided me emotionally, financially, and spiritually…
Cheers!
I cannot have all of this for Dad, without saying “Hi Mom!” *Laughs* Just kidding Dad.
Today is your day!
