June 19, 2011 — Father’s Day

Dear William (and Daniel, Catherine, Michael & Baby Girl Y) (and your parents), (and any future descendants and their parents),

Well, today is your and your Father’s first Father’s Day!

William and his Dad, May 28, 2011

So, you may wonder, what is the big deal? — Well, let me tell you:

Your Dad is a prince of a guy

Marek, February 20, 2009

One of the GREATEST things he ever did was picking your Mom to be his wife and your mother — it is that fundamental decision that made everything else possible.

Marek & Kelly, October 11, 2003

And, I hope that you will spend many good times together; and, some day, that you become a father as good as your Dad.

Before your Dad, there were other dads — I was (and still am) your Dad’s dad; and I had a dad; and Babcia Krysia had her dad; and my Father had his Dad; etc., etc.

Your father is the guy you will wait for; the guy you will learn from; the guy that loves you.

Love,

Dziadziuś Paweł.
