Father's Day 2011
Every Father's Day I have wanted to write something about my Dad. I've never known a more loving, affectionate man. My father is the epitome of human fatherhood! At least in my eyes.

Or when your heart is breaking, he lets you get it out, and then comforts you. All these were cementing my view of my father, but nothing like when I became an adult. When most other fathers would just let their adult children learn from their biggest mistakes, my Dad drove 8 hours to make sure I KNEW it was wrong and to appeal to my heart to change. When that change was coming to fruition, I bet only my dad would cry and blame it on allergies. When I got into a hard situation, one I could not help, my dad would make that 8 hour trip again to hold me. Even though he probably didn't want too, my dad let me leave his safe nest again. Whe
