My Father…My Hero!

My Father…MY HERO!

On this Father’s Day, I find myself feeling thankful and blessed, yet melancholy as I reminisce on the wonderful memories of my father.  Today, we honor our Dad’s; although I believe, Dad’s should be honored every day!  After all, they are the one’s that have always been there, have become our heroes, have lifted us up when we needed it most, brought that great joy to our each and every day, and have never failed in letting us know how much we are loved.  My Dad was and will always be my hero.  I truly treasure every moment that we shared and will never forget his unconditional love.  Dad had that wonderful ability to make you feel as if you were the only one in the room – while at the same time, making sure everyone around felt his presence, love and enthusiastic energy.  God truly blessed my life with an amazing, loving and unforgettable Father.  Be sure to take a moment today to let your Father know just how much he means to you, because you just never know when your last words with him will come.  I LOVE YOU DAD!

Happy Father’s Day to all the Dad’s out there who continue to be our heroes!

What Makes A Father

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 and

When there was nothing more to add, He knew His masterpiece was complete,

And so, He called it …

FATHER!
