Happy Father's Day, Dad. The grill is hot. The cooler is iced. The lawn chair is unfolded. The retirement is, somehow, just like the working years — only with more grilling.

Father's Day greetings. May the kids actually pick up the phone today. (We're calling. We promise.)

Happy Father's Day. The bar tonight is on you. The wisdom tonight is unsolicited. The presence is the actual gift.

Wishing you a Father's Day with the recliner reclined, the snack reachable, and the dog asleep at your feet.

Happy Father's Day, Dad. May today be the kind where everyone agrees you're right about everything. (For one day. Strictly one day.)

Father's Day wishes for the dad who has, despite all warnings, kept the same gross flip-flops since 2003.

Happy Father's Day. The grill is the appliance. The garage is the man cave. The recliner is the throne. The dad jokes are the soundtrack.

Wishing you a Father's Day where the small children behave for one full meal. (We can dream.)

Happy Father's Day, Dad. The kids drew the cards. The cards are mostly stick figures of what we assume is you. We've framed one. You're welcome.

Father's Day greetings. May the day end with the news on TV, the snack on the table, and at least one kid actually sitting still long enough to take a photo.

Happy Father's Day. The grill is fired up. The dad jokes are at the ready. The kids are pretending to laugh. The cycle continues. Iconic.

Wishing you a Father's Day worthy of every dad joke you've ever told. (Which, frankly, is a lot of dad jokes.) Eat well. Nap well. Tell us at least three more before bed.

Happy anniversary. We've been married long enough to know exactly which side of the bed is whose. That's love.

Anniversary update: still married, still fighting about the thermostat, still choosing each other anyway.

Happy anniversary. The vows didn't mention how much of marriage is choosing what to eat. We've survived.

Years together and you still leave cabinet doors open like a small ghost lives here. Happy anniversary.

Happy anniversary. The honeymoon was magical. The marriage is mostly negotiating who handles the laundry. Both, somehow, equally good.

Anniversary wishes for the spouse who still has not learned to load the dishwasher correctly. I've stopped pointing it out. That's growth.

Happy anniversary. We promised to love each other in sickness and health. Nobody mentioned that we'd also have to share a bathroom.

Years married. Still happily annoying each other. That's the dream.

Happy anniversary. May the next year include fewer disagreements about loading the dishwasher and more agreement on the dinner.

Anniversary update: still married, still convinced you snore on purpose. Love you.

Happy anniversary. We've survived a renovation, a haircut I didn't like, and one regrettable haircut you didn't like. Marriage tested. Marriage passed.

Years in, and I still don't know how you make a fresh dish dirty just by walking past it. Happy anniversary.

Happy anniversary. Marriage is mostly two people texting each other from different rooms in the same house. We have mastered it.
