Reflections on Father’s Day June 17, 2007

Posted by The Giddy Tiger in : Close to Heart & Home , trackback

A Father…

~ beams with pride when his baby grabs hold of his finger ever so tightly.  A grasp that seems to say “Daddy, don’t ever leave me!”

~ goes out of his way to get his child that box of color pencils she asked for for her birthday.  A daughter’s smile will make Daddy’s day, anytime.

~ gives his child a hug and soothes away the pain of a tummy ache.  Nothing beats the comfort of Dad’s embrace.

~ prays with the family and guides us to follow God’s Word.

~ shows his child how to solve a complicated Mathematics question in the simplest manner possible. 

~ offers his arm when his daughter takes that walk down the aisle.  An loving nudge in the right direction for the beautiful journey she was about to embark on.

~ is always there to listen to his children, no matter how busy he is.

~ is the calm in the midst of a storm.

~ is why Father’s Day is celebrated.

…and deep deep down, every woman is still Daddy’s little girl…..

Happy Father’s Day to GT’s Dad! (since I already wished Pete at Ethan Boy’s blog…)

I am such a Daddy’s little girl too! I wonder if he’ll bawl when I walk down the aisle? *grin & wink*

The Giddy Tiger says: Thanks Rinnah!…And it shows that you’re Daddy’s little girl!

Got me thinkingabout how much more common and true it is to have Daddie’s Little Girl, and Mommie’s Little Boy…

The Giddy Tiger says: You got that right! :)

Aww…that got me thinking about what a Daddy’s girl I am! :) I guess in our daddies eyes, we’ll always be their little girls despite how old we are or independent we proclaim to be!

The Giddy Tiger says: Spot on, Pinkelle! :D
