Inside, the card reads:
Dad Makes Life Better
You never needed flight or flame,
No costume stitched with praise or fame.
Your power lived in quieter things,
The strength to stay, the peace you bring.
Where others sought the world’s applause,
You stood with honor, shaped by cause
You taught that courage doesn’t boast,
It’s found in those who give the most.
Through sleepless nights and silent prayer,
You built a life from love and care.
A thousand times, you gave your all,
And lifted me when I would fall.
Though you may never leap or fly,
You held the stars within your eye.
And now I see, through all I do,
The hero I become… begins with you.
