HOW ARE YOU AND YOUR DAD MOST ALIKE?

HOW DO YOU LIKE TO CELEBRATE FATHER’S DAY WITH YOUR KIDS?

“We’ve made a tradition of going on a family bike ride on Father's Day. It’s been great to see the kids go from relying on training wheels to mastering mountain bikes—and now we’re back to training wheels with my youngest.”

WHAT’S THE MOST REWARDING PART OF BEING A DAD?

“Watching my kids grow up and have the confidence to be who they want to be. There are so many important milestones in life and being able to witness my kids go through them is the best—but I wish they would stop growing up so quickly!”
