A Dad is a person who is loving and kind, And often he knows what you have on your mind. He’s someone who listens, suggests, and defends. A dad can be one of your very best friends! He’s proud of your triumphs, but when things go wrong, A dad can be patient and helpful and […]

I like to walk with Grandpa, His steps are short like mine. He doesn’t say “Now hurry up!” He always takes his time. Most people have to hurry, They do not stop and see, I’m glad that God made Grandpa “Unrushed” and young like me. Author: Unknown

I became my dad today when my son looked at me that way. The look was on his face – there could be no mistake When my son looked at me that way I became my dad today. I became my dad today when I sang that song that way. The voice I had heard […]
