Happy Father's Day

Shawn, you are a great father. Thank you for showing us that we really do have it in usJ I know this might be a tough day, we are here if you need us…

Chuckie…keep loving that little girl. I know she will learn an appreciation for the “wild” from you and I know you will be there for her…

Dad (Dr. Dolittle), thank you for everything. Thank you for being on my side when we both knew my side was not the best spot to be. Thank you for providing things that were not expected…but appreciated. Thank you for teaching me to think…and when I did not know to, “look it up in the dictionary”. Thank you for the bits of life’s wisdom, I still have some of the post-its you would leave on the mirror. Thank you for teaching me not to force it because if you have to…it is not right. Thank you for showing what can be accomplished with a little work. Thank you for teaching me that fairness and truth may no get you the best deal but will leave you with a clear conscious…which is worth more than money. Thank you for teaching to be quiet every now and then…although I am still working on that one.

GP and Grandpa Estep, thank you for the wisdom I was too young to understand.

To all the fathers, at least the ones that love enough to understand this post….Happy Father’s Day.
