As the years go by, the character of Father’s Day has constantly changed for me. It used to be fun to see what sort of gifts my children thought I would like. Paintings, handmade gifts, socks and ties.

Nowadays, my grandkids are giving me similar gifts and, if anything, I enjoy them even more as “Papa” becomes my new moniker. And I have to say that I am blessed to havey three healthy children, their spouses and those grandkids in my life — that is a gift I am so grateful for.

I will do my best to remember that we are not promised another day and to be thankful.
