 Being a father and then from my father, both support is equally important to both of us. Two boys, you know, it's an opportunity to share the values that my father instilled in me with them. While a lot of people would not necessarily say, hey, you know, I'm glad to be gone for my kids, I know that when I am gone, they're in good hands because of him. When I think of fatherhood is a lifelong commitment and life lessons that my father was able to pass on to me. Fatherhood or being a dad, like I said, both my daughters are older, both of them are Air Force veterans, and so proud of them, watching them grow and educate themselves and figure out the ways of the world. Fatherhood is a wonderful thing, where you can watch your kids nurture and the responsibility it comes with. With fatherhood, you're there to teach your kids and guide them along the way. There's going to be boobies, there's going to be times when they fail and you have to be there to support them, but it's also great to be there and they accomplish great things in their lives. Honestly, it means everything to me. I don't know what I would do without my little girls. They're my world. Kenna and Harper, I love you. I can't wait to get home and see you. The thing that I enjoy most about being a dad is just watching him grow, spending time with him, and just seeing him evolve into the man he's become. On this Father's Day, I want to tell Logan that I love him, I miss him, I'll be home soon and I'm very proud of him. The first thing I think you have to sacrifice is the sacrifices you have to make to make sure your kids are happy. What I enjoy most of being a dad is the interactions I have with my own kids. I walk into the house after work and they come running and they miss me. I miss them just as much. The first thing that comes to mind when I think of fatherhood is dedication. That's the next stage in a man's life. When you shift your focus from yourself to someone who's more important than you could ever be. Even though I'm not there, I'm always thinking about them and I can't wait to get home. I love everyone. To Patrick, to Nathan, to William, to Lauren, you're everything to me. You're what make the world go around. You set the stage for everything that is to come. My wife is my foundation. She's what took me from a very rough piece of clay and molded me into something that I look in the mirror and I'm happy about. That rough piece of clay that my wife helped shape and mold me into what I am today had to start somewhere. That started with my parents and my dad was a big part of that. Thank you. Thank you just for giving me the tools and the balance to be who I am today.
