A day late ode to awesome dads

Any man can be a father.  It takes someone special to be a dad. ~Author Unknown

Father’s Day was yesterday and if you forgot you’d better call your dad asap with apologies and some epic excuses.

I would like to take a moment to thank dads for being awesome.  I can’t imagine the person I would be without the influence and guidance I’ve had from my father.

If you’re lucky, you had a father that:

Taught you how to fish, swim, ride a bike and how to drive

drove a truck and helped you move all your stuff

never let you win at anything

taught you right from wrong

helped you play with your toys on Christmas morning

Even though Father’s Day is over, call your dad again soon.  Thank him for working  insane hours at a job he probably didn’t like so that your family had enough money.  Thank him for all of his help and advice.  Thank him for being your dad.

Lets all try to remember to appreciate our dads even on days that aren’t specifically pointed out as “dad days” because they’re awesome and we wouldn’t be who we are without their guidance.

Thanks Dad.

    But when you did win you had no doubt it was all you and you deserved to win. It was not given to you but you earned the win. And Marble works was for me only it had your name on it. Love you
