I asked my dad what he loved most about being a father on Father's Day

He said, 'It's not the milestones, it's the moments in between – like when you kids were little and thought I was the smartest person alive, and even though you're older now, you still call me for advice, which means you either still think I'm smart or you just feel sorry for me – either way, I'll take it.'

My dad's garage is so organized,

he can find a screw from 1987 faster than I can find my phone in my room.

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!'

I asked my dad to teach me his secret to always knowing the right thing to say, no matter the situation, and he smiled and said

it's not about having all the answers, it's about being there to ask the questions together
