The day my son was born on a father's day, I called into a radio station and asked them to pick a song for the special day. They picked this one. Almost 5 years later him and I are sitting here strumming on the guitar and clapping to his "faBorite"* song. *favourite 🤗

I was travelling for work from Winnipeg to Newfoundland just after my wife and I found out we were pregnant. In the taxi it hit me that our first kiddo would be born when I was 33. On the way home to Winnipeg I took the 5 am flight home from St John's. Always loved that extra verse
