I was especially blessed with a great dad. He has taught me many things- how to clean a bathroom the right way, how to really work, and how to choose good things (entertainment, friends, talents, etc), and how to enjoy nature. Perhaps one of the best things my dad has taught me however, was to love and serve the way Christ did and still does- for that I am so grateful.
I didn't always give my dad the respect he deserved and am sad sometimes when I think about how I was towards him growing up. He has made a lot of changes in his life to bless his family. If I can be anything like my dad, I know Heavenly Father would be proud. So Happy Father's Day - I am blessed to call you "Dad".
I am also VERY blessed to be married to a wonderful husband who is also an amazing father. Being a dad has come so natural to him. I love watching him start to teach Tanner important things like how to say prayers, read scriptures, and say please and thank you. His example as a dad teaches me how to be patient and how to enjoy the little joys of parenting. I have heard the saying that the greatest thing a dad can do for his children is to love their mother. If this is so, Trevor has already given the greatest gift he can as a dad. He has never lifted his hand to me in anger, raised his voice in argument, or failed to respect me as a daughter of Heavenly Father. I couldn't have asked for a better man to be mine forever. I love you and know Tanner and our future children and blessed to call you "Dad".
