All I think about Father's Day


Not having a father for most of my youth, this day was never big to me.  It still isn't.  Given all the press it gets, however, I can't help think about it from time to time.  My thoughts all boil down to these simple points.

I do wish I had had a father growing up, but I'm generally okay with the fact that I did not.

I tried hard to be a good father, but I fell far short of my ideal, and I see my failings way more than my successes.

Despite that, Sarah and Scott are amazing, and I am the luckiest father alive to have them as my kids.

Most of all, that last one:  Sarah and Scott are amazing, and I am the luckiest father alive to have them as my kids.
