TAKEAWAY: We pause this Sunday to wish all the fathers out there a very special and happy day.
It is Father’s Day Sunday in the United States. I am home to celebrate with my four children and 10 grandchildren.
In the past four months, three of the designers I work with have become dads. In each case, I told the new dad that the child born to him would be his best project ever, and, of course, one that does not disappear into oblivion.
I have four such wonderful projects myself, and I am proud of each of them: Mario, Brian, Ana and Elena. In turn, they have given me 10 grandchildren ranging in ages from 10 years to six months, each special in his/her own way—three girls, seven boys.
The great Mahatma Gandhi said that “grandchildren are God’s dessert to men”.
Wishing all the dads (and grandpas) out there a very special day.
I know mine will be sweet times 10.
