Father's Day Thoughts

I don’t normally do this.

There are four very important men in my life; my son, my husband, by brother and my Dad. Sometimes things haven’t gone well for us. Sometimes they have.

Sundays are not posting days for KiddyCharts, but I am being slightly sentimental.

I have been lucky enough to have a wonderful Dad, and to marry Brad, who is a fabulous father to our two kids.

So here is a thought for them and for all fathers everywhere.

Its not Shakespeare and its cheesy, but it’s Father’s Day, so who cares!

Thought for Fathers Day

A graze
A cry
A broken-heart
He’ll dry the tears away
He’ll pick you up to start again
Small
Big
Alone
No matter what
He’ll be there when you need him
A friend
A playmate
A clown
Your Dad.

If you liked this lovely poem you can get it in a printable version in this Fathers day poem post.
Inspiration for Fathers Day poems doesn’t come easily to someone like me, I’m a private wee lass, but somehow it seemed right to put this into words, even though they are very simple ones. Being a Father is one of the most amazing things in the world, and having that little person that relies on you, and loves you can be so mind-blowing sometimes.

We have a few other resources on the site which you might like to take a look at for Fathers Day:

Fathers Day gift that is easier to make,
Some free Fathers Day cards for you to give to your little ones,
A few thoughts on Fathers Day gifts, all about what Dad really wants, and
Some free printables for Fathers Day to show your Dad just how much he means to you!

Come on everyone, Fathers Day Poems are a lovely touch on Fathers Day, but how about going one step further with a lovely craft, or having a really hard think about what your Dad, or your ittle one’s Dad really means to you and them?
