I am ever so grateful to live with this man who exemplifies gentle, heart-full parenting. I stuck today's One Solar Year poem into this post as well, since it was mainly about him. I'm grateful for all the fathers I've had in my life: my own two fathers, and others'.
Markus was once the tallest member of our household! 
no longer dwarfed by his children, Markus reminisces about the taller old days
Here is the poem I wrote for today, in two parts. They're intended to be seen on a large screen. :-)
Happy father's day!
