Today I'm grateful for fathers who are actively involved in their kids' lives

I just left the park with my little dude and I have this silly grin on my face.
Yes,the park relaxes me BUT even more importantly today it was overflowing with dads playing with their kids.
I know you're wondering - what about the mothers?
There were some mothers too BUT there are always moms.
You walk into a park and there are moms everywhere - chatting,watching kids,networking and sometimes exercising.
But it's very rare to see fathers at the park playing with their kids
Its almost like someone decided the park and the playground are off limits for dads.
But it's spring break in my neck of the woods and boy did the dads come out in full force...teaching their kids how to play ball,pushing them in the swings,cheering them on as they climbed up the wall...wow,I almost cried...it was such a beautiful sight.
It made my day so today,I'm grateful for fathers who are actively involved in their kids' lives - y'all rock!!
