"RADIANT, HUMBLE, TERRIFIC"

I remember like yesterday the exact moment the letters of E.B. White's Charlotte's Web came together to form words and sentences in front of my eyes - thanks to Dad.  Every Saturday morning he sat with me, patiently teaching me to read.

I also remember the giddy freedom when I realized I was pedaling my bike alone - my father's hand gone from the back of the seat where it had kept my balance for so long.  All I could hear was "Go, go, go!" as I sped away.

Persistence... resilience...independence.  Fathers are superheroes of sorts - with the power to swoop in and change a life forever.  A million thank-you's to mine and Happy Father's Day to all!
