My oversharing about fathers day

 I don't know my bio dad. He left a long time ago. Fathers day has always been weird for me. A few years a go my step dad came into my life. At first I resented the fact that I had to share my moms attention with him. I was so rotten and rude towards him because of that. Slowly but surely I began to love and appreciate him. He really stepped up to being my dad even when I really didn't deserve it. Its crazy how he chose to be that for me because he didn't have to. He was always there. He came to every single event and game I had. So fathers day is confusing for me. I don't want to feel bad for myself and say I don't have a dad because I do. I have a really caring, patient, and thoughtful dad. Wow thats still a little weird to say but thats all right.

  1. It is so wonderful that you have a beautiful mind of accepting and appreciating him! My father passed away a couple of years ago, I still think about him and wish I had talked and thanked him more! Thank you for sharing your thoughts.
