Just last Father’s Day, my daughter made me a Father’s Day card and it’s the first one I got since I became a father four years ago. And despite our current distance, I hope I could receive more in the coming years.

The attached quotes or poem came from an unknown author and is called Walk a Little Slower.

“Walk a Little slower, Daddy.” said a little child so small.
I’m following in your footsteps and I don’t want to fall.

Sometimes your steps are very fast, sometimes they’re hard to see;
So walk a little slower Daddy, for you are leading me.

Someday when I’m all grown up, You’re what I want to be.
Then I will have a little child who’ll want to follow me.

And I would want to lead just right, and know that I was true;
So, walk a little slower, Daddy, for I must follow you!!
