A Dad

A dad is someone who wants to catch you before you fall but instead picks you up, brushes you off, and lets you try again. 
A dad is someone who wants to keep you from making mistakes but instead lets you find your own way, even though his heart breaks in silence when you get hurt. 
A dad is someone who holds you when you cry, scolds you when you break the rules, shines with pride when you succeed, and has faith in you even when you fail. 
A dad is a person who is loving and kind, and often he knows what you have on your mind who listens, suggests, and defends. 
A dad can be one of your very best friends! He's proud of your triumphs, but when things go wrong, a dad can be patient and helpful and strong In all that you do, a dad's love plays a part. 
There's always a place for him deep in your heart. And each year that passes, you're even more glad, more grateful and proud just to call him your dad! Thank you, Dad for listening and caring, for giving and sharing, but, especially, for just being you!   
Dad, you're everything a dad should be and some. 
Happy Father's Day!
