Fathers

Fathers are natures way of keeping the species going.  First of all it has to be fun and it is!  The rest is a little more difficult.  Making babies is one thing.  Feeding them and cleaning them and teaching them how to survive takes a lot longer and is a lot more work!

That is how Daddies and Papas and Das came into being.  That is why Father becomes a word of endearment that melts hearts and warms hearths.  No longer just a little boy playing around, creating copies of himself for fun and pleasure, raising them to carry on the family profession, teaching them so they will be around to care for him in his old age, fathering is now a labor of love.

A selfless investment of time and patience, caring and striving to provide whatever it takes to create little people who will grow up happy and healthy, filled with a zest for life and a love of living.

Watching my sons with their children,  I see fathers at their best.
