For some people their Dad is not much a part of their lives, but for me, my dad was everything. If it hadn't been for him, who knows where I would have ended up? He taught me to keep my word, love my neighbor, seek truth and was always there for me. My relationship with him as a youth was more important than I realized. When things were hard, my dad was always the one I would turn to. He taught me the life lessons that have lead to this beautiful life I now have. He was my rock in many ways and always corrected me if I belittled myself. He never hesitated to take the time with me that I needed. He taught me what a father should be and what I should look for in a father for my children. In fact, when I met my husband, his voice reminded me of my dad's and for some weird reason, the rest, was history. I have many fond memories of childhood with dad, getting ice cream, traveling across the country, gardening, washing windows and wrestling when I was younger. My dad still means the world to me. He is far away now, but when I get to see him again I am going to give him the biggest hug ever!
Take care of your father's. You never know what the future holds. May all you father's out there have an amazing day!
