This Father’s Day, make sure to remember not just your own father, but all the other males who have played a positive role in your life.

I am eternally grateful for my father and the faith, wisdom, and skills he imparted to me. Now that I have children of my own, I appreciate even more all that he did for us and how much it takes to balance work and family. If I tried to add up all the time he spent on work, family, chores, and coaching us in sports in one week, I think it would somehow add up to more than 168 hours. When he slept, I don’t know.
