To all the great ones...

{me and my dad, circa 1984ish? my love for striped shirts apparently started here!}

my job as a teacher has taught me many things, one of them being the fact that all dads are not created equal. that is to say, it takes more than having a child to be a father. a lot more. i consider myself lucky everyday to have possibly the most dedicated father on the planet, who's never been afraid to stand up for what he believes is right for his children, and who has contributed so much to the person i've become. love you, dad!

happy father's day, everyone!
