Inspirational Sayings About Fathers      A



A careful man I want to be… a little fellow follows me.
I do not dare to go astray, for fear he’ll go the self-same way.
I cannot once escape his eyes, whatever he sees me do he tries.
Like me he says he’s going to be… that little chap who follows me.

He knows that I am big and fine… and believes in every word of mine.
The base in me he must not see… that little chap who follows me.
But after all it’s easier, that brighter road to climb,
With little hands behind me… to push me all the time.

And I reckon I’m a better man than I used to be...
Because I have this lad at home, who thinks the world of me


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.


A dad is the hero his son hopes to be.

In time of joy or stress
An understanding, loyal soul
A heart of tenderness
A mind all wisdom, knowing how
Justice and love to blend
A teacher, loving, patient, kind
My Father and my friend

Inspirational Sayings About Fathers         I



I may find my prince, but my dad will always be my king.


I won’t always cry, Mummy
When you leave the room
And my supermarket tantrums
Will end too, soon

I won’t always wake, Daddy
For cuddles through the night
And one day you will miss
Having a chocolate face to wipe

You won’t always wake to find my foot
Is kicking you out of bed
Or find me sideways on your pillow
Where you want to lay your head

You won’t always have to carry me
In asleep from the car
Or piggy-back me down the road
When my little legs can’t walk that far

So cherish every cuddle
Remember them all
One day, Mummy and Daddy
I won’t be this small


It’s the little memories that will last a lifetime.
