There are fathers who run. There are fathers who run in place. There are fathers who stay and do harm. Here is to fathers who stay and father their children all of their lives. Let no one tell you your job is not one of the two most important gifts to the world. Let no one fail to pause to thank you, not just on Father’s Day, but every day. ‘Say bless you, but you know you are blessed. Hope you know what a blessing you are! Happy Father’s Day !!
