I asked my dad to write a letter to his future self for Father's Day, and when I read it, I found out why he's always been so patient with me.

It said, 'Dear future self, by now you've figured out that all those times you thought you were teaching your kids something, they were actually teaching you patience, forgiveness, and what it means to love unconditionally. Happy Father's Day.'

I got my dad a new smart thermostat for Father's Day, hoping it would make his life easier.

He just set it to 72 degrees, then looked at me and said, 'Now that's what I call a *degree* of comfort!'

My dad's friends think he's a master carpenter because of all the home improvement projects he starts

but really, he's just a master of finding creative ways to use duct tape and prayer to hold things together

I asked my dad what his superpower was on Father's Day

He said it was his ability to turn any conversation into a discussion about the perfect grill temperature
