Happy Father’s Day. First months of fatherhood have exceeded all expectation. Now with first-hand appreciation for the responsibility of what “dad” means. Know this is the most important job I will have & hope to be a positive example for the rest of my life. Love to all. pic.twitter.com/vS1psR9OA0
