...a good father is…
 

    ...one who knows that children have only one love language – time;
     
    …one who daughters want to marry, and sons want to emulate;
     
    …one you know will protect you and defend you;
     
    …one who provides everything you need (but not necessarily everything you want);
     
    …one who is brave when you are scared;
     
    …one who races you to the emergency room;
     
    …one who teaches you how to treat a woman, and what you should expect from a man;
     
    …one who cherished your mother;
     
    …one who is stronger, and taller, than you (at least, at first);
     
    …one who taught you how to swim, how to ride a bike, how to throw a ball, how to open a door for a woman, how to…you get it;
     
    …one who spanked you when you deserved it, and you’re glad he did (but you never saw how much it broke his heart);
     
    …one who taught you how to drive;
     
    …one who set curfews;
     
    …one who didn’t make a big deal of the things you thought he would, but did of the things that you know, now, mattered;
     
    …one who either stayed up late, or got up early…just to see you off;
     
    …one who answered your questions…one after another after another after another;
     
    …one who said, “Oh, come on Mom, let ‘em do it”;
     
    …one who finally said “okay” to the puppy;
     
    …one who took you out “trick or treating”;
     
    …one who drove you to your first day at school, your first day at college, and your first day at…;
     
    …one who went with you to get your ears pierced (whether daughter...or son);
     
    …one who let them braid his hair;
     
    …one you could tell, “I kissed her!”;
     
    …one who took you on trips;
     
    …one who talked to you about that boy (or that girl)…
     
    …one who paid the ticket;
     
    …one who was a wreck walking you down the aisle, or bursting with pride waiting by your side at the altar for your bride;
     
    …one who introduced you to God;
     
    …one who, most of all, loved you so much he would have laid down his life for yours in a heartbeat.

 
And still would.
 
Happy Father’s Day.
