Dad

I have a wonderful father and mother. I never realized how much my parents loved me until I had my own children. Most of all - I feel very blessed that I was taught that God, our heavenly father, loves all of us very much, and that is just awesome. I really believe that dads have such a huge impact on their child's life, and it is important for them to be there for their kiddos. Even the men that don't have children - you too have neices, nephews, or even friend's children that you can be a mentor for them. After all - it does take a village to raise a child. I hope my girls know how blessed they are to have wonderful men in their lives.


Do not take for granted that your child knows that you love them - tell it to them often.
Allow your child or a child to see or hear you pray.
Dare to be a mentor or a good role model for a child. You just never know how much it may do for them down the road, and always look them in the eye when you are suppose to be really listening.
