Celebrating Father’s day

In a few days it will be Father’s day. I feel there isn’t much of a hulabaloo about this day than what usually happens with Mother’s day. I wonder why?
I have been celebrating my father on Father’s day for years. Now I am celebrating two fathers, my husband included.
And on this year’s Father’s day I celebrate the following about my father:
- Unlimited patience
- Extensive knowledge
- Strong will
- Devotion
- Faith
I celebrate the following about my husband - on his being the father to my youngest son:
- Deep love
- Loyalty
- Strong will
- Firm
- Soft (although contradicting to the previous bullet)
- Ambitious
Notice that I just sort of listed them out. I wanted to put some more detail and kind of give justice to why I feel they each have these qualities. But I must confess, I will turn into an emotional mush if I did. Just trying to conjure up all the memories that I have of these two men in my life is enough to bring on the flood of tears (of joy).
I love them both equally yet differently. And although they see differently, the one thing they can bank on is my bottomless love for the both of them.

“there isn’t much of a hulabaloo about this day than what usually happens with Mother’s day.” - I agree! But of course for us who are gifted with the our best fathers, fathers-in-law and fathers to our children,we should make it a point to make them really special during their special day.
Happy Fathers’ Day to all the dads in the world!
