It shows up in the early mornings and the late nights,
In the way the dishes get done without a word.
Fatherhood isn’t loud,
It’s in the subtle shift of priorities.
In the stroller walks, the car rides just for sleep,
The dancing in the living room when no one’s watching.
It’s in the way you keep showing up wholeheartedly.
Because of you
We breathe a little easier.
We are so grateful for you
And we love you;
Every single day.
