A Father and Daughter Relationship
What I saw today brought tears to my eyes. I saw a young father teaching his 4 year old daughter how to ride a bike. I hadn’t seen that in years and watched in amazement how patient he was with her. How he walked her through each little step. How she rode and he ran along... Continue Reading →
