My dad has this amazing superpower where he can fall asleep in any chair, at any time, usually within seconds of sitting down.

I used to think he was just tired, but now I realize he's just recharging his 'Dad energy' so he can always be there for everything tomorrow.

My dad always says he doesn't need anything fancy for Father's Day, just a quiet afternoon and a perfectly mowed lawn.

But then I caught him showing off the misshapen clay mug I made him in kindergarten to his golf buddies, and I realized his heart's true desire was always just for us to be there... and maybe make him something.

I framed a picture of my dad's handyman to-do list for Father's Day

And he said it was the first time someone finally understood his life's work

I decided to go through some old family videos with my dad on Father's Day

and he cried during the part where I learned to ride a bike, but not because he was proud – he just remembered how much the bike cost
