Dad Makes Life Better / Writing Greeting Card

$5.95

Inside, the card reads:
Dad Makes Life Better!
I did not understand then,
Why your hands were rough,
Why your steps were heavy,
Why your silence carried more weight than words.

I did not see then,
How the world leaned against you,
How you bore its weight alone,
Shielding me from storms I never even felt.

But now, I know.

I see your strength in the patience I’ve learned,
Your wisdom in the choices I make,
Your love in the way I stand tall,
Because you never let me fall.

And though time may slow your hands,
And years may carve their lines upon you,
Know this: everything I am was first written in you.
For that, I will love you always.
