Today is Father’s Day!
I enjoy my work (most days) but being a father is an even greater joy.
There are few roles harder than being a parent.
When the children are young, you need to figure out how to get through the work day after being up all night with a sick child.
Having a family drove me to work hard so I could help provide for them. Without a family, I probably would not have worked so hard.
It also changed my focus from myself to others.
I also found out how many hours I could go without sleep.
But…all of that effort was nothing as I watched my children grow up and go throug1h the different phases of life. Seeing them as adults makes all the hard work and lack of sleep worthwhile!
To all the fathers, thanks for your hard work taking care of your children, taking them to sports activities, school, and many other events that occur.
I enjoy being a father – one of the most satisfying roles I have! Work is important but it is behind being a father!
