Those of us lucky enough to have a father in our lives are blessed, and with Father’s Day on Sunday, June 21st, it’s time to celebrate fathers everywhere!
My father doesn’s ask for much, but I love to bake him a special cake and show him how much I love and appreciate him by making him something from the heart! For instance, check out this cute, and easy-to-make Father’s Day cake (We Like to Learn as We Go) and this DIY Scrabble picture frame (Folksy).

Why not start Father’s Day off with a family movie night. Treat your dad to a homemade dinner and a movie on Saturday night, featuring some of these movies. Check out a more comprehensive list at IMDb. 
So this Father’s Day, I encourage you to spend some time with your dad, step-dad, grandfathers, or the father-figure in your life and let them know how much you appreciate and love them. There are a lot of people who have lost their fathers, and I encourage you to get together with family and reminisce about the good times with dad or grandpa.
As for me, I hope to spend some time with my own dad, Jerry. I am so thankful for him, for his love and support, for his sacrifice and his selflessness, for the lessons he taught me, and for the laughter he brought to my life. I love you dad! 
I’d also like to say a special Happy Father’s Day to my brother, Tim Howard. He is a Junior at Texas A&M and the father of three wonderful young ladies – Kyra, Kalista, and Kami. 
Have a great day… and Happy Father’s Day to all the fathers, dads, step-dads, dads-to-be, adoptive fathers, grandfathers, and father-figures!
