Fathers are unique. Some dads watch baseball while eating game-time snacks. Other dads work on Wall Street and watch stocks rise and fall over grilled salmon with Béarnaise sauce. Still, most dads, whether they are capable of showing it or not, love their children a great deal.
Maybe you have a great dad, and maybe you didn’t. The point is that Father’s Day is upon us, and if you are celebrating a sober dad or if you are giving the wonderful gift of being a sober dad, here are some terrific ways to spend the day. If there is no sober dad in your life, spend the day with an influential man in your life, one that has made you smile.
