What’s a Dad For Dad?

There is a Man in my life who I love, that is my father. Today is Father’s Day, but I will not be talking about my own father. The man I have decided to give a shout out to is someone I met while I was living in California. There are many qualities that he has that I would like to develop. This man I am talking about is Paul Andrus. I lived near him for about 7 ½ months. I had dinner with him and his family a few times and I have a special place for them in my life. Paul is a single father of two great kids and he does everything he possibly can to care for those children.

                When life gives you lemons, make Lemonade. That is the best way I can describe Paul. The care of his kids is not a simple task when the younger of the two has had many surgeries and is in need of care most of the day. He has put off a lot of his passions and desires to care for his family. The best thing a father can give his family is his time. Paul is a man who gives of his time although he has no time to give. He is and will always remain a role model in my life.  

                I know this post is small, but elaborating on this would just ruin the simple truth. Paul, you are a wonderful father and will always have my respect and love.
