To the Rock Star of Our House

Dear Dad, Daddy, Dada,

Happy Father’s Day. We want to thank YOU for:

Teaching us to ride the daily waves of life with confidence



Showing us that the sky is the limit



Demonstrating that sometimes you have to gamble in life to win big



Keeping us afloat



Cheering on our “homeruns”



Teaching us to be handy and helpful (mom appreciates it too)



Proving that a sense of humor will carry us through tough times



Stopping to appreciate the beauty surrounding us in nature. We love the great outdoors because of you



Knowing that less is not always more



Showing us that pursuing passions is valuable- not selfish



Teaching us to resist outside “noise” and instead listen to what is truly important



Helping us to find our own rhythm in life



Most importantly, Dad, we thank you for teaching us that although you have big feet to follow, that you will guide us so that we may successfully follow your lead and walk in your footsteps.





Love,
Luke, Charlie, and Jack
