I asked my dad what his perfect Father's Day morning would be

and he said 'waking up to a quiet house, a full tank of gas in the lawn mower, and no one asking me to fix anything'

My dad's neighbors think he's a professional landscaper

but really he just has a lot of free time and a riding lawn mower

I once told my dad he didn't say 'I love you' enough.

He just walked over, silently fixed the leaky faucet I'd been ignoring for weeks, and then left a freshly brewed cup of coffee on my desk. And you know what? I've never felt more loved.

I asked my dad how he wanted to spend Father's Day, and he just smiled and said 'just like any other day, with the people I love'
