Being a dad means vomit on the front of your shirt, poop on your hands, and magic marker on the walls. It means late night fevers, tools found rusting on the lawn, throw and catch lessons with future major leaguers, tea parties with princesses, science projects that are beyond Einstein’s capabilities, wicked arguments, pride beyond what words can express, anger that’s hard to contain, countless worries, and love beyond measure.
Being a dad means I would do anything to help you become the best you that you can be, even if you don’t like me for making you strive to be that better person.
Being a dad means hoping that when all the battles of strong wills pass, I will still get a hug and an “I love you, Dad.”
Happy Father’s Day!!!

My heart breaks for kids who don’t get a lot of attention from their parents, and esoecially kids in foster care.
