When I was a kid, my dad used to say that for him, EVERY day was Father's Day. Single-digit me thought that was a silly thing to say because I was too young to recognize commercial marketing at work.
As a lucky dad to two amazing boys, I now understand what he meant. They are everything, and today - every day, really - is about them.
As it should be.
Miss you and your wisdom, Dad. You were the best.

My kids don't generally like carbonated beverages, but recently the 9yo has developed a taste for Jarritos Lime Soda. We let him have some on occasion (less than once a month, and never a full bottle because it's basically candy).
He refers to it as "Hairy Toes." ๐คฃ
Congrats to my nephew who qualified to represent his high school at the state track finals with a 4:21 mile. The kid is fast, and only a sophomore!
When we got the news, my wife, with a straight face, turned to me and asked, "How fast can you run a mile?" ๐๐คฃ
Why is banana pudding better when it comes from a BBQ joint?
In my email: "You're not signed up to receive marketing content from us."
You say that like it's a bad thing.
I just had a positive customer service phone interaction, and I feel like that's a rare thing these days. The call lasted about10 minutes and I accomplished my goal. The rep was reasonably pleasant and accommodating, and even though he was based in Asia, there was no significant language barrier.
I'll take the win.
