Father's Day

To me, a dad is someone who provides for his family. He is able to see the world through his child's eyes, he is able to facilitate learning and fun-times based on his child's interests. He can put his adult life on hold to play with his kid.
A dad is a family man. He deals with the ups and downs of his family member's moods and needs, and he allows his family to deal with his.
A dad's love is an asset to the fam. He doesn't need to prove his love, his everyday actions speak for themselves.
The family can lean on him, rely on him, and know that he will be there to provide for, protect, and love them.
Despite continuous social pressure, a dad will help out with the everyday stuff. He helps with errands, meals, events, and cleaning.
I have been blessed with a father who has done these things, and who usually feels this way. I was blessed again when I realized The Hubs fills this role too. My mom chose a good one when she remarried. (She chose well the first time too...just wanted to give a shout-out to the step).
Happy Father's Day.
