Dad, you taught me that the most important thing a father can leave to his kids is not what he leaves for them, but what he leaves in them
You operated heavy machinery by day and a tiny toothbrush by night
You lifted me up even higher than you could lift yourself
You told me stories of warriors and dragons, not to convince me that dragons were real, but to show me that evil can be overcome
You mastered the art of carrying a sleeping child, fixing little toys and making the perfect sandwich
You showed me that you don't have to have superpowers to be a superhero
You knew that there is no quality time without quantity time
You cleaned up my messes, impersonated my favorite animals, and wiped away my tears
You understood that your greatest gift to our family was not your productivity, but your presence
You were focused, but interruptible
Brave, but compassionate
Strong but gentle because there is nothing so strong as gentleness and nothing so gentle as real strength
Thanks, dad
