Father's Day Gift

10th Edition - All About Fathers and Father's Day

Welcome! I'd like to talk about fathers. I know from my
own experience that fatherhood can be a difficult role and I think
many underestimate just how difficult it is, to provide the right
amount of freedom, guidance and discipline, a tricky balancing act
at the best of times. My own theory is that I will just love my
children unconditionally, forever, no matter what. Easier said than
done at times but it is my life's plan, even if at times it feels
like that love is not returned (but I did leave their mother so I
forgive and understand them).

By the way, if you haven't said 'I love you' to your father for a
while, I suggest you do. It just might help. Here are a few real
life examples of people doing just that. I hope you enjoy them. All
the very best, Allen


Goodbye Dad - Trust In The Lord

Mike's father was sadly diagnosed with terminal cancer and was
given only months to live. This is how Mike said goodbye:

Hello - Dad

On a much happier note, Jen wanted something from their unborn baby
to the new father, Jeff. The poem is written from the baby's
perspective which I think adds a nice touch...

Thanks Dad - An Unselfish Role

Why does everybody leave it until the last moments to say I love
you? A truly touching story...
