Father knows best

My dad knows a lot of stuff.

My dad taught me how to run. And we go running a lot. He taught me to say hi to the people I see when I’m out running because that’s nice.

My dad taught me about school. I remember doing my “homework” with him at the kitchen table when he was working on his Masters degree.

My dad taught me that curly hair is pretty. That one just took a while to sink in.

My dad knew it was best for me to get up for early morning seminary even if I had very different ideas at the time.

My dad taught me how to read real big books because he was always reading them.

My dad taught me how to garden and grow things.

My dad taught me how to load a dishwasher.

My dad taught me how a man is supposed to treat a woman.

My dad taught me the gospel. He taught me about the importance of learning the language.

I have a real cool grandpa who knows lots of stuff too.

My grandpa taught me about the bumble bee with a bottle of buttermilk under his arm.

My grandpa taught me about faith.

My grandpa taught me about family.

My grandpa taught me the importance of book learning and not just education.

I love the fathers in my life. I hope they have a great day today and know how much they are loved and appreciated.
