Picking flowers

Happy Father’s Day! This week, we asked our readers to share their favorite memory with their dad. Here are some of the touching responses we received:

Childhood Memories

Dancing on his feet – him teaching me to waltz when I was 5 – Shelley Crockett ‏@shelleycrockett16h

I vividly recall (45 years ago) when he took my hand and rubbed it across his chin before he shaved! #sandpaper. – Susan McPherson ‏@susanmcp124s

The way he would peel oranges into a crown when I was a kid, making me feel like a princess. – Alexandra Eurdolian ‏@AlexandraKE2h

A Father’s Love

When I was 6 with pneumonia, I got sick on my dad in an elevator hospital. He never let go of me. – Jennifer Smiga ‏@inBLOOMbuzz1m

Dad always bragged he knew I was an artist when I was still in the crib – I scribbled the walls around my crib with a red crayon. – @moxilladotcom13h

My dad worked 24/7 for our family; we’d always have dinner but every once in a while, we’d catch a movie. – Ko Im ‏@konakafe13h

He never missed a single thing my brother and I did. Always on the front row. Always smiling and cheering us on. – Alex Lawrence ‏@AlexLawrence3h

Growing Up

Nothing compares to seeing my kid have as much fun as I once did jumping on my dad on the floor. – Susan Johannesmann ‏@Johanneswomann13h

Dad teaching me how to ride a motorcycle. He saved the motorbike and taught my daughter on it. – Lizzie Bermudez ‏@LizzieBtv15h
