Father {So Much Contained in One Little Word}

A good father is one of the most unsung, unpraised, unnoticed, and yet one of the most valuable assets in our society.

~ Billy Graham ~

In the baby lies the

future of the world.

Mother must hold the baby close
so that the baby knows it is his world,

but the father must take him to the highest hill

so that he can see 

what his world is like.

~ Mayan Indian Proverb ~

Dads are most ordinary men turned by love into heroes, adventurers, story-tellers, singers of songs.

~ Pam Brown ~

The righteous man walks in his integrity; his children are blessed after him.

~ Proverbs 20:7 (NKJV) ~

What a father says to his children is not heard by the world, but it will be heard by posterity.

~ Jean Paul Richter ~

With much love for my dad and for the dad of my children on this very special day!!  :)
