We're just mere weeks away from the official start of Summer, and I can't tell you how excited I am for<br />
the season <strong>to</strong> bloom. From coast <strong>to</strong> coast, families everywhere are s<strong>to</strong>ckpiling fireworks, buying brand<br />
new outdoor furniture, and honing their barbecue skills <strong>to</strong> prepare for the many block parties, family<br />
reunions, high school or college graduations, and the countless wedding parties that fill our Summer<br />
days and nights. From the seemingly endless summer festivities <strong>to</strong> the family barbecues and picnics<br />
in the park, <strong>to</strong> days spent at the beach or the pool, and family road trips, the season is full of my most<br />
favorite things: family, celebrations, and a sort of mid-year renewal for all, young and old.<br />
As we think about spending quality time with our family and friends, let's take some time <strong>to</strong> celebrate<br />
the wonderful men in our lives. Whether they're our sons, our fathers, our husbands, or any special guy<br />
in our life. This month we're going <strong>to</strong> take some time <strong>to</strong> gush about men and issues that are pertinent<br />
<strong>to</strong> their health, their minds, and all the great joys they bring <strong>to</strong> our lives.<br />
What you'll find inside this edition is s<strong>to</strong>ries focusing on men's health, their roles in our children's' lives,<br />
what they can do or wear <strong>to</strong> make them shine, and even a couple of articles <strong>to</strong> help them look and feel<br />
their best for a very long time. So, gather the men you love and let's get ready <strong>to</strong> celebrate all of them<br />
and all the great memories they helped us create, all the accomplishments they've made in their lives.<br />
More importantly, discuss <strong>to</strong>pics that are meaningful <strong>to</strong> them and help them become the best versions<br />
of themselves and enjoy some much-needed quality time with the ones they love.<br />
So, before you light those grills or roll out the fireworks, take a few moments <strong>to</strong> thank the men in your<br />
lives for all the laughs, great memories, irreplaceable anecdotes they've shared, and years/hours/days full<br />
of long-lasting memories for all. Without further ado, let's begin our month long celebration and thank<br />
each and every man, young and old, who has made an impact in our lives and who we hope <strong>to</strong> continue<br />
<strong>to</strong> build lasting memories with for a very long time.<br />
Happy Father's Day <strong>to</strong> dads everywhere!<br />
