My dad taught me well

Was thinking about my old man today. He wasn't a perfect guy but he taught me to keep my promises, treat people with respect regardless of who they are, and admit when I'm wrong. Now I'm trying to pass that along to my kids. He would be proud of the men we're raising. Miss him some days but his lessons are still guiding me.

Man, same here. My dad taught me to own my mistakes and try again next time. That lesson has shaped everything about how I parent. Glad you're honoring what he gave you.

Your old man sounds like he nailed the important stuff. Character over perfection every time.

This hits different. My old man wasn't perfect either but he showed up every single day. The promise thing really resonates with me because that's what my kids remember most. Not the fancy stuff, just that I said I'd be there and I was.
