If we're honest, Father's Day can be complicated for lots of people for all sorts of reasons.

For children with care experience, this day can be complicated too - missing family, longing for it, celebrating what's good, wondering what's ahead.

For others, it's a chance to celebrate the men who chose to show up - faithfully, consistently, without fanfare.

As we prepare to mark the day and feel all the feelings (sometimes altogether) we're grateful for the father figures who are steadfast, celebrate them and mourn with those also feeling grief today.
