Happy Father’s Day to every dad, stepdad, granddad, dad-to-be, foster dad, mentor and father figure.
To the dads who are here, and the dads we wish were still here. To those celebrating their first Father’s Day, and those facing another one with an empty chair and a lifetime of memories.
To the men who stepped into the role when life didn’t quite go according to plan, and those who have loved, guided, protected and supported children they didn’t necessarily bring into this world.
And a thought today for the men who desperately wanted to become dads but never got the chance. Some losses and some stories aren’t visible to everyone else.
Father’s Day can be a celebration, a memory, a hope, or sometimes a difficult day to get through.
Whatever it means to you today, Happy Father’s Day.
Here’s to the dads.💪
