Happy Father's Day

My Son I am so proud of the fabulous Father you are to your Son.

The time we share with our children is priceless. For there is not enough money in the world that can buy a memory shared.

"The problems and cares of this life are like the relentless ocean waves. But even the most serious problems cannot begin to tear this family apart because this man is a safe harbor and a Tower of Strength to those who call him Daddy."
~ Mark Keathley

It was not only into my eyes you looked but deep into my soul

What Makes a Dad

God took the strength of a mountain,
The majesty of a tree, 
The warmth of a summer sun,
The calm of a quiet sea.

The generous soul of nature,
The comforting arm of night,
The wisdom of the ages,
The power of the eagle's flight.

The joy of a morning in spring,
The faith of a mustard seed,
The patience of eternity,
The depth of a family need.

Then God combined these qualities,
When there was nothing more to add,
He knew His masterpiece was complete,
And so, He called it ... Dad ღ

"Fathering is not something perfect men do, but something that perfects the man."

- Frank Pittman 

One night a father overheard his son pray: Dear God, Make me the kind of man my Daddy is. Later that night, the Father prayed, Dear God, Make me the kind of man my son wants me to be.

My father gave me the greatest gift anyone could give another person, he believed in me. - Jim Valvano

or happiness never comes. 
Ah, that's the reason a bird can sing ~
On his darkest day he believes in spring."

What Is A Dad?

A dad is someone who
wants to catch you before you fall
but instead picks you up,
brushes you off,
and lets you try again.

A dad is someone who
wants to keep you from making mistakes
but instead lets you find your own way,
even though his heart breaks in silence
when you get hurt.

A dad is someone who
holds you when you cry,
scolds you when you break the rules,
shines with pride when you succeed,
and has faith in you even when you fail...
