WHAT MAKES A DAD!



God took the strength of a mountain,
The majesty of a tree,
The warmth of a summer sun,
The calm of a quiet sea,

The generous soul of nature,
The comforting arm of night,
The wisdom of the ages,
The power of the eagle's flight,

The joy of a morning in spring,
The faith of a mustard seed,
The patience of eternity,
The depth of a family need,

Then God combined these qualities,
When there was nothing more to add,
He knew His masterpiece was complete,
And so, He called it ... Dad.

How about The Smother’s Brothers hit “I wanna be a cotton-pickin’ finger-lickin’ chicken plucker; just like my ol’ man.”

That song speaks volumes about the love those two...boys...had for their father, right?
