TODAY WE SALUTE ALL DADS!!!

On Father’s Day, it is only timely to recognize the dads who go the extra mile— no matter what the situation is—for their families and for their children.

A time to recollect the importance of the men who defend their families, provide for their children, tell corny jokes and read bedtime stories, and teach their daughters and sons how to throw a baseball, ride a bike, or cast a fishing line into the water.
But it doesn’t stop there!
Father’s Day is also a day to celebrate the dads who have been fathers to children that are not their own. Children who never had the opportunity of knowing their dads, or even having dads.
There’s a time for everything. There’s a time to poll the fatherless and record their social and emotional ills and a time to discuss ways to help them survive the odds. There is also a time to say “thank you” to the men who actually stand in the gap and help the children succeed.
Countless men, many unnoticed, consider fathering a part of their daily duty; and many people whose lives they touched reaped lifetime benefits from their counsel. Some shared more than counsel: time, money, skills, and even their names with children who were not biologically theirs.

So today we salute ALL dads!!!
Because this world would not have been the same without them!
