What is a dad?

What IS a Dad?


A dad can fix just about ANYTHING!

A good dad chooses a super-awesome step-mom for his kids! ;)

A dad does his daughter's make-up on Halloween!

A dad is SILLY.

A dad is there for all the important moments!

A dad pushes the trike around- even when he's not excited about it.

A dad gets frustrated, but loves his kids anyway!

A dad knows his children's spirits from the beginning...

"My dad is Santa Claus and the tooth fairy!" -Emily

"My dad takes me on walks... and does other fun stuff with me, too." -Noah


I ride on my dad shoulders....

and fall asleep. -Adam

I wanna be just like my daddy someday!


Happy Father's Day, David! We love you!!!

What is a Grandpa?

A grandfather gives a child her first impressions about life....

A grandpa is tender and mild.

A grandfather is strong and protective.

A grandfather is a teacher, and a friend.

A grandpa watches the circle of life continue on and on...

"Dear Grandpa. It's Father's Day today and I would like to say, 'Happy Father's Day' to you. Love, Emily"

"Dear Grandpa, I miss you. I hope I get to come visit soon. Love, Noah"

"Dear Dad, I think you are a wonderful father and grandfather. Thank you for being the rock of our family that you are. You have made a tremendous influence for good on me and my children. I love you! Greta"

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY MOM AND DAD!
