Why we love Dad
-
He kept every drawing I ever made him in a folder in his desk. I found it when we cleaned out his office. Forty years of scribbles, labeled by date.
More love for Dad
- My stepdad never tried to replace anyone. He just kept showing up until 'Bill' turned into 'Dad.' Took me ten years to say it. He cried.
- Papá cruzó un continente con lo puesto para que yo pudiera nacer aquí. Todo lo que soy empieza con ese viaje.
- I'm 42 and I still call him when the car makes a weird noise. Half the time he just listens and says 'bring it over.' It was never about the car.
- The man drove four hours to change my tire because 'you shouldn't have to do that in the rain.' I was 35.
