What a wonderful post, really meaningful. You reminded me of my dad who loved to be with us every day of his life, thanks to him I learned the love for reading and books, even today that he is not with me in a corporeal form I can feel his presence in our library where I spent hours with him as a child listening to him reading a book to me, then as an adult we enjoyed reading together and commenting on our books. Undoubtedly a father is necessary in the lives of children, the role of mom and dad can not be replaced, I greatly appreciate the women who have had to assume the responsibility of having their children alone for multiple circumstances but that does not change the emptiness of not having a dad because I have friends who did not know who his father was and suffered a lot for that, I had the best father in the world, as I see that your son also has the best. Truly a wonderful post. Congratulations
