Most importantly, you are the best papa to my kids, and that means the world to me. Thank you for everything that you do. You have been the stronghold in my life. You set a firm foundation and precedence by making church a priority and for that I am forever grateful. You have always been such an encourager, motivator, and listener. I have countless memories with you as a child, i.
As an adult, I cherish the close relationship that I have with you. I especially enjoy our road trips to FSU games. We have had some great laughs and memories and I look forward to many more. Thank you, Joe Christian, for being an amazing father. I just wanted to say you mean so much to me. You make me happy on rainy days….. What would life be without a dad like you? You were pulling up carpet, exposing the old pins and nails, and laying down the new.
There was a glue strip set underneath the seams, and you had to melt the glue with a hot carpet iron. I remember your hands and forearms, which looked so massive at the time, and I remember thinking that being a man was to have hands like that. Even then, I was aware it went more slowly with me involved. I also like when you try and read me Bible stories, but all I really want to do is chew on the pages. I love you da-da. When my earthly father died 2 years ago, You gave me a song every day, for two weeks all day and all night.
One day, when I was alone, my heart remembered the words of Psalm I knew then, and I still know now … You love me!
You are the awesomest Dad ever! You have inspired me to play soccer. I like watching the World Cup with you. You make me run faster, you have taught me your dance moves, and your singing is awesome. I like how you taught me to be a Christian.
I love doing family talk with you at the dinner table and that you wake me up for school in the morning. You have taught me right from wrong. You have always been my daddy, playmate, hero, coach, mentor, and teacher throughout my life. You have opened my eyes to who I am and who I want to be. You were always the one to push me harder, faster, stronger to make me the woman I am today.
I am so thankful to have you as a dad because you have always taught me to keep God first in my life and to always believe in myself. I hope one day soon that Craig and I will be able to have a child of our own and teach that child some of the same morals that you helped me set in my life. Thank you dad for always being there when I needed you and to continue to always being that caring, loving, giving man that you are. The three of us wish that we could be there to celebrate you today. Your constant love and support has meant more than anything.
You sat through countless softball games, pageants, and graduations throughout the years. We owe a great deal of our individual successes to you. From all of us, thank you for being the best dad that any girl could hope for. My dad is caring, strong, and a man of conviction. Dear daddy, I just wanted to let you know that I love you so much. I appreciate how incredibly hard you work and all that you do for our family.
Dads, you have one of the most influential roles in your son's life. Here are 7 things your son needs in the father son relationship. Whatever your relationship is with your father, and whether he was a good dad or not, it's important to be as fully reconciled as possible with him before he.
Thank you for everything. Every Sunday we were there, with our tithe of 7 pennies each; one for every day of the week. Sunday was also a day of rest. Dad would nap in the afternoon and only to rise to milk the cows again in the evening. We learned to work and take care of the things God gave us. Dad taught us many things, not by telling us, but by example. From generation to generation, my gentle, loving Dad has been a picture of my heavenly Father.
I am blessed beyond measure. From one man to another…. A man that is oh so similar to you. What a great thing. Courage, strength, character, decency, honor, love, empathy, respect, and so many other characteristics ingrained into my soul because of you. While today you may not remember some of those moments, I will remember for you. You are leaving me and my family in a much better position that you were left in.
A foundational cornerstone that all fathers wish for their children. You may not remember that you have done this for my family, but I will remember for you. While you struggle to remember day to day issues, while a fog rests over past times, and while soon you may struggle to remember me, I will remember for you. You are my on call maintenance man, for anything that can and does go wrong. Or that UPS left something at my house? My auto mechanic; if I run into your house for more than five min my oil is checked. If you have to add two quarts does that count as an oil change?
You love and support my spoiled children. But most of all … you love me. You do way too much for me. I appreciate you and love you. I remember when you jumped on the trampoline with me. Dear Dad, I love you. I also think you are very funny. My favorite thing is when me and you play football. I was still a little boy, but even then I could see, the Lord had touched your life and blessed our family.
Something else you used to say. God is looking for a man. Someone who will stand and live the truth no matter who agrees. Papa, you have been His man. I know I still have much to learn, but i have begun to see, How blessed I am with a Father who has loved and corrected me.
I thank the Lord today, for the Godly man you are.
I want to honor you in all I do and say. They teach us how to grow. How to catch a ball. How to take care of others. And above all, how to love. In my eyes, my father has always been the epitome of joy and truth. He thrives on making people smile. In many segments of society, people grow up without ever knowing their fathers. This is unfortunate because fathers should play as important a role in raising their children as mothers. A father is the model of a man for his daughter and she will choose a man who is like him.
A father is the model for his son as well. Fortunately, there is a trend for fathers to be more active in their children's lives. There was a time When not so long ago A newborn had cried her first tear As she entered into a strange new world. This is a fantastic poem that shows the life with a family and shows all the processes in a family and all the changes that passes, I love this poem that I even said it in a poetry contest!
He was always my pillar when I knew I'd fall Always my anchor, so strong and tall His hard face changes only for me His softer side, so careless and free. My dad is my world. He is the best dad in the world.
If I could write a story, It would be the greatest ever told. I'd write about my daddy, For he had a heart of gold. I loved your poem. That's how my daddy is, and I love him. He is alive, and I hope he lives a long time. He fights everyone so that I can study. For my father, my friend, This to me you have always been. Through the good times and the bad, Your understanding I have had.
I love this poem.
My papa is the masterpiece of God as my father. I have seen him in pain when I was suffering, and he had suffered much more than me to get me out. In those horrible days, Only a dad, with a tired face, Coming home from the daily race, Bringing little of gold or fame, To show how well he has played the game,.
