  • Happy Father's Day, Dad. You taught me to play cards at the kitchen table and to lose gracefully, which was harder. I'm still working on it.

  • Happy Father's Day, Dad. I was thinking about the long bus rides we took to the city when I was small, and how you let me hold the tickets like I was in charge. You pointed out every odd building and made up names for the shops we passed. I never once felt bored, even when the ride went on forever. I think that is a real talent, and I have only just noticed it. Thank you for those trips, and I love you.

  • Happy Father's Day, Dad. I still remember the kitchen smelling of your homemade pickles every late summer, and how proud you were of every jar.

  • Dear Dad, happy Father's Day. I have accepted that I will never win an argument about the right way to load a dishwasher. I have also accepted that I now load mine exactly the way you do. Thank you for that, and for always being good-humored about it.

  • Happy Father's Day, Grandpa. It is such a beautiful sunny day here that I kept thinking of your garden and the old chair you like beside the roses. I hope you get to enjoy a bit of the sunshine today. Love to you and Grandma.

How to write your own

  • Pick one real moment, like him teaching you to ride a bike or fixing something in the garage.
  • Say thank you for something particular, not just for everything.
  • Use the name you actually call him, whether it is Dad, Pops or Grandpa.
  • A little humor is welcome, like a gentle joke about his grill skills or his famous puns.
  • Close with a warm, plain line such as I'm lucky you're my dad.
