A Happy Father’s Day to My Dad, My Husband who I lovingly refer to as Papa Bear, and all the other Papa Bears Out There!
As Papa Bear and I celebrate this first Father’s Day in our empty nest, I am thinking about my own father and how he embraced this stage in life. Until now I had not given much thought to how fathers feel when their last baby goes off to college. I have poured out my heart →
