Many memories of my childhood are of the days my dad took us on outings just to spend time with us. Family time, time creating memories that last a lifetime. Going on road-trips, grabbing an ice-cream, heading to the cottage for the weekend and every once in a while, vacationing to other parts of the world. Everything my dad did, he did for us, his family. As a mom I know this now, and can appreciate all he did. I try hard to create the same memories with my children and show my parents however I can, that I appreciate all they did for my sister and I growing up. I wish I was not in such a rush to grow up when I was younger. I wish we had more time to spend together. As we get older I cherish every memory and every fun thing we did.
Father’s Day is that one day of the year you remember to pick up the phone and reach out to your dad. That day you can thank him for all he has done and share those great memories from your past. Father’s day is the perfect time to express your love and appreciation for the man who raised you and was there through all the good and the bad.
Now, being a mom I see the relationship my children have with their dad as well. I see how special it is and how important it is to have a man in their loves who encourages them and supports them throughout all their hurdles and challenges. It is an amazing relationship to see and be part of.
I am always hearing about all the things moms do for their children. Truth be told, dads are there too. They are there through the good times, the bad, the late night diaper changings, the soccer practices and Christmas concerts.
