Reminders are everywhere; today is the day in the UK to celebrate dads, too. Â I’d like to do a little celebrating myself.
I have an amazing dad who loves me fiercely, continues to teach me things, laughs as often as he can, keeps life simple, and deals it straight. Â He used to sing with me and take me to work with him (where I was a very big help I am sure). Â And he made time for our date night every week until I moved to London. Â (Thanks, Carol, for those nights you cooked!)
I also have a wonderful stepdad who loves me as much as he loves my step-siblings, taught me about the wonder of late night banana splits at Denny’s, who likes my impossible (though quite handsome) cat, and gave me a lot of extra attention when I was a bratty, awful, mouthy teenager. Â (I might still be that way?) Â How did he put up with me?!
I am lucky to have had twice the love and support. Â Maybe that’s part of the reason I picked such an amazing husband; I knew how I liked to be treated because I had two dads do their best to make me feel special, share my heartaches, and make me laugh. Â And I have two dads that would set things straight if I ever needed it : )
I love you!!
