Father's Day

Julia Price-Kent

My dad...took us on bike rides;invented games for us to play; built a treehouse; taught us to skate, ride bikes, and appreciate art; took us on day trips and sang in the car; brought us home something each day when he came home from work even if f it was just a stick of gum; invented stories about our family doing adventures; let us cuddle in bed on early weekend mornings; had discussions about serious subjects with us and listened most of the time, no subject was taboo; cooked inventively with only one major disaster; make me look up words; danced with me standing on his feet; and gave great foot rubs; and taught us how to think critically. hanks for the good times, Daddy.

It;s easy to be a good dad, when you have four of the best kids any dad could ask for and a fabulous mother.
Even now, after all this time, when I hear somebody call out "Daddy!", I immediately look up.  If you've ever been Daddy, you never get over it.  It's the worlds top job and I loved it.  Love, Daddy
