What Makes A Dad....



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

~~Author Unknown.~~


For the last 15 years Mr. Darling has been blessed by his children. They in return have been blessed by their father.
The day our son was born, he took that little baby in his arms and embraced his fatherhood.
He was truly in love with his little boy. His eyes lit up everyday when he came home from work...and always gave his full attention to his child. Then along came another bundle... a little girl who would soon wrap him around her finger. Their love has blossomed like a beautiful garden.
Mr. Darling is passionate when it comes to his faith and his family.
There has never been a moment where he hasn't been there for our children,
through happy times and hard times.

He gives of himself more than I have ever seen in my lifetime.
His only prayer for his children is that
they will be just as passionate about God, their faith
and their family as he is.

There is nothing but LOVE that comes from his heart & soul for his children.
For that, there is nothing but LOVE our children have for him.

He gives his tender loving heart to his daughter,
giving her full assurance & trust in her faithful daddy.
Her heart belongs to him.



He gives his son a firm foundation, in love, respect and patience
which will pass on when he becomes a father himself.
He is our son's hero.



He is much loved !!!
He is an awesome Daddy !!
Happy Fathers Day !!!

Wishing all you Daddy's out there a great day !!!!
