Today is Father's Day. And I have a great dad. He shaped my political beliefs, my social beliefs, my religious beliefs. He shared his love of reading and gardening. He works harder than anyone I have ever met and probably receives less credit for it. He is smart, unassuming, and opinionated. He was a fantastic provider and husband. He is sarcastic and snarky at times, but so am I.
I am the luckiest girl to have grown up with a dad like this. I miss him, but he did everything he could to give us every opportunity in the world to do our own thing, to live our own lives. And hopefully I can be half as good of a parent as he and my mom can be to any kids I may be blessed enough to have.
