Fathers day.

I am lucky that I grew up with and still have an amazing dad. No matter what the circumstance he always made time to see us, take us places and do cool things with us. I can honestly say that I do not have a bad memory involving my dad. Blessed I know.

I never dreamt in a million years that any man would marry me, let alone have children with me, but it happened and hubby is the best father and I hope that he too leaves the positive and happy memories for our children.

It is a shame that, there are  men that don't see and appreciate the blessing that has been given to them. It is not about gifts, money spent or even about fancy dinners. It is about the I love you, the memories, the joy, the smiles, the hugs, the support, always being there no matter what. Dads are soo important. As a girl they are who you look at later in life when finding your mate, for a boy, they are your role model on how to treat your family, and well be a man.

So what happens in a persons life to make them gamble the joy and love of Fathers Day. When your child wants to see you, to hug you, to love you, for that one day, why can't some Dads, just allow it to be? Why gamble it? No one knows what the future will bring, what if this was the last chance you had to ever hold them again, why risk that?

There are so many people out there today wishing there dad was here for a hug, that there arms could stretch down from above and comfort them and know that they are loved. So many dads at war or at work missing there darlings on the one day that is just for their daddy.. So you can understand my confusion when someone just treats it like its any other day, and breaks the heart of their child. When my childs' heart breaks, mine does too. Makes me wonder, do these dads have broken hearts or no heart at all?

I am so thankful that my dad is not one of those dads, but an awesome dad. Every day I thank my lucky stars that he is my dad and still here with me. A world with out my dad is a world I never want to know.
