*Today is Father's Day!* Dear Dads, We See You. Father’s Day isn’t just a date on the calendar, it’s a chance to pause and reflect on the weight, beauty, and complexity of being a dad. Let’s be honest: fatherhood isn’t easy. No one prepares you for the nights you lie awake worrying, or the moments you doubt if you’re doing enough. But somehow, you keep showing up, and that means more than you know. Some fathers are teaching kids how to tie their shoes or how to face the world. Some are raising teenagers, helping them find their voice in a noisy world. Some are parenting adult children, still offering a quiet kind of strength. Some are grieving. Some are waiting. Some are doing the work of fatherhood in the background , without attention, without applause. And yet, there you are. Driving to hospital appointments. Showing up at school events, even if you had a long day. Asking “how was your day?” and genuinely listening. Packing snacks, paying fees, offering life advice, or just holding your kid when they don’t want to talk, only to be near you. You may not get celebrated enough, but today, we want to change that. We honor every kind of father: The biological dads, the stepdads, the adoptive dads, the foster dads, the uncles, brothers, and grandfathers who stepped in, the men who mentor, the ones doing their best to heal and show up, even when they never had an example to follow. We see your effort. We feel your presence. And we thank you , deeply. You are valued. You are needed. You are loved. Happy Father’s Day.
