A Father's Day Tribute


I'm dedicating this poem to my husband, Kelly, who has done so much for all of our children:

What Is 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...

Happy Father's Day Kelly!
Love you lots!
